About the Item

A rare small ceramic soliflore by Jacques Blin, made in France in the 1950s. This delicate vase features Blin’s signature misty glaze in greenish-yellow tones, combined with a finely engraved frieze of playing card symbols—hearts, spades, clubs, and diamonds—around the shoulder. Known for his poetic and whimsical engravings, Blin brought a unique voice to mid-century French ceramics. The piece is wheel-thrown, with a narrow neck and soft, rounded form, showcasing his mastery of texture and patina. A charming and collectible work, perfect for lovers of post-war design and studio pottery.
