50s French Vallauris Colored Ceramic Coffe or Tea Set, Signed
About the Item
Amazing ceramic coffee or tea set from Vallauris. Made up of 6 cup and plate stalls, coffee maker, sugar bowl and milk jug. It is very original and fun, thanks to its decorative shapes and colors. It follows the primitivist aesthetic that captivated artists like Picasso. A unique and exclusive game, made by hand. It is an author's ceramic, each piece has a signature in the lower area.
Vallauris was a pottery center that experienced great growth in the mid-19th century thanks to the arrival of the railway. It ended up consecrating itself as a ceramic focus with the arrival of post-impressionist and modern painters, such as Chagall or Picasso, who sought their source of inspiration in the oriental and primitive. At this time, then, the large factories arise, and with them, a true industrial and commercial organization in terms of ceramic production.
Since Gallo-Roman times, pottery has stood out in Vallauris thanks to culinary ceramics. Casseroles, pots and jugs have increased the international reputation of Vallauris, especially due to the resistance of this material to high temperatures. Picasso's arrival in the 1950s gave Vallauris the status of the ceramics capital of France, attracting many artists eager to learn the arts of fire.
Vallauris ceramics are of the highest quality both in terms of material and design.

View AllAtelier CERENNE RENE NEVEUX VALLAURIS 50s French Ceramic Abstract pair plate
Located in Valladolid, ES
A bold and evocative abstract design decorates this mid century sculptural pair of plates from the Atelier Cerenne founded by Charles Rene Neveux in Vallauris, France in the commune of Vence. Signed verso, this gorgeous example of ceramic artistry is a tour de force of quality, restraint and style. The strong black ground is heightened by the incised white outline and further added to by the use of red, blue, yellow and green and 2 fish . Charles Rene Neveux founded the Atelier Cerenne in 1945 and it was active up through 1958 when it was sold. The atelier was best known for the small and high end production runs that produced such beautiful objects as the one here. It has been said that the Atelier Cerenne takes its name from the contraction of the founders name, Charles Rene Neveux. For a bit of history on Vallauris, here's a tidbit from the Perfectly Provence website: "Vallauris Golfe-Juan – “city of 100 potters” – is a tourist town on the French Riviera between Antibes and Cannes. Its name (Valauria in Provencal) means “the golden valley.” Divided into two parts; the old centre of Vallauris, and the seaside section running from the port along the Côte d’Azur, towards Antibes... However, 20th-century modernization brings with it a decline in artisanal pottery activity in Vallauris. After WWII, Picasso gives a new impetus to the pottery of Vallauris when he chooses to settle in the city. Like a magnet, the presence of Picasso draws...
