1970s French Glazed Pottery Platter with Bull Motif, Vibrant Southern Colors
Located in Auribeau sur Siagne, FR
Description: This striking glazed pottery platter, crafted in France in the 1970s, features a bold and expressive black bull at its center, surrounded by vibrant accents of yellow, green, and blue. Reminiscent of the work of southern French ceramicists from the 1960s, the platter evokes the sun-soaked spirit and artistic freedom of the Mediterranean coast. A piece full of character and color, it serves equally well as a decorative statement or a functional serving dish. Key features include: Southern French Aesthetic: The energetic brushstrokes and vivid color palette call to mind the styles of Vallauris and other southern ceramic traditions, celebrated for their earthy forms and Mediterranean vibrancy. Central Bull Motif: The powerful black bull, a symbol of strength and rustic heritage, anchors the piece in both myth and regional culture, while the surrounding colors create movement and contrast. Vibrant Glaze Work: The layered glazes in yellow, green, and blue enhance the platter’s visual dynamism, catching light and adding depth to the composition. 1970s French Craftsmanship: Made in France during a creative and bold era for ceramics, this platter is an authentic reflection of regional craftsmanship and artistic innovation. Decorative & Functional: Suitable as a centerpiece on a dining or coffee table, mounted on a wall, or used as a serving platter, it brings color and energy to any setting. Versatile Integration: Its graphic motif and strong palette make it ideal for modern, rustic, or eclectic interiors, effortlessly bridging traditional charm and contemporary appeal. This 1970s French glazed pottery platter is a celebration of color, culture, and craftsmanship—a perfect piece for those who appreciate authentic regional ceramics and bold artistic expression.

Antique and Vintage Ceramics for Sale: Shop Figurines, Vases and Scandinavian Pottery on 1stDibs

Whether you’re adding an eye-catching mid-century modern glazed stoneware bowl to your dining table or grouping a collection of decorative plates by color for the shelving in your living room, decorating and entertaining with antique and vintage ceramics is a great way to introduce provocative pops of colors and textures to a space or family meals.

Ceramics, which includes pottery such as earthenware and stoneware, has had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world for thousands of years. When people began to populate permanent settlements during the Neolithic era, which saw the rapid growth of agriculture and farming, clay-based ceramics were fired in underground kilns and played a greater role as important containers for dry goods, water, art objects and more.

Today, if an Art Deco floor vase, adorned in bright polychrome glazed colors with flowers and geometric patterns, isn’t your speed, maybe minimalist ceramics can help you design a room that’s both timeless and of the moment. Mixing and matching can invite conversation and bring spirited contrasts to your outdoor dining area. The natural-world details enameled on an Art Nouveau vase might pair well with the sleek simplicity of a modern serving bowl, for example.

In your kitchen, your cabinets are likely filled with ceramic dinner plates. You’re probably serving daily meals on stoneware dishes or durable sets of porcelain or bone china, while decorative ceramic dishes may be on display in your dining room. Perhaps you’ve anchored a group of smaller pottery pieces on your mantelpiece with some taller vases and vessels, or a console table in your living room is home to an earthenware bowl with a decorative seasonal collection of leaves, greenery and acorns.

Regardless of your tastes, however, it’s possible that ceramics are already in use all over your home and outdoor space. If not, why? Whatever your needs may be, find a wide range of antique and vintage ceramics on 1stDibs.
