About the Item

This unique ceramic vase by French ceramist André Rozay perfectly embodies the organic and textured style for which the artist is celebrated. Featuring raised motifs reminiscent of natural forms—such as leaves or botanical elements—the piece reflects Rozay’s deep inspiration drawn from raw and authentic aspects of nature. Its earthy brown glaze enhances the rustic character of the piece, lending it a warm, patinated finish. André Rozay, active during the mid-20th century, is renowned for his sculptural ceramics that seamlessly blend simplicity with sophistication. This vase, with its rounded base and gently flared neck, exemplifies that approach: a timeless silhouette elevated by bold texture and finely worked detailing. The raised surface gives the piece a tactile, commanding presence, echoing both Brutalist aesthetics and the philosophy of the Arts and Crafts movement. This is a signed, one-of-a-kind work by André Rozay, making it a highly collectible piece for ceramics lovers and design connoisseurs alike. Its singular nature reflects the artist’s careful and personal approach to form and surface—no two pieces are ever quite the same. As a vintage signed artwork from a highly regarded mid-century ceramist, this vase represents the enduring value of handcrafted design. Its bold form, naturalistic texture, and impeccable patina place it at the intersection of fine art and functional object—an ideal acquisition for collectors seeking rare and timeless pieces. The vase is in very good vintage condition with a warm, natural patina. Its form is both sculptural and functional, with subtle imperfections that celebrate artisanal craftsmanship. The glaze shows nuanced earth tones, and the relief motifs offer depth and visual intrigue. Made in France during the 1960s–70s, this piece is characteristic of Rozay’s approach—elevating utilitarian objects into poetic, nature-inspired forms. Each of his creations is a tribute to traditional know-how and the beauty of imperfection. Marked: Signed “PIECE UNIQUE” Condition: Very good vintage condition; minor signs of age consistent with handcrafted ceramics Dimensions: Heigth 24.3cm Perfect displayed on a console, shelf, or mantelpiece, either as a standalone statement or paired with other vintage ceramics. Adds a touch of Brutalist elegance to both minimalist and eclectic interiors.
