About the Item

This is a small black ceramic pitcher from the 1950s, crafted in Vallauris, a town in the South of France renowned for its ceramic artistry. The piece exhibits a simple yet elegant form, featuring a rounded body with a slightly narrower neck and a gracefully curved handle. The glossy black glaze gives it a sleek and minimalist appearance, emphasizing its timeless design. The spout is functional, enhancing the utility of the pitcher. While the artist remains unidentified, the piece reflects the mid-century modern aesthetic and the craftsmanship that Vallauris pottery became famous for during this era. Vallauris ceramics from the 1950s often embraced bold forms and finishes, and this pitcher is no exception, showcasing both functionality and artistic appeal. Its historical and artistic significance makes it a noteworthy collector's item. Firmed under the base. Good condition, minor losses, few chips on the rim. More information Upon Request.
