About the Item

Vintage French ceramic flower-motif cross by La Roue, Vallauris, France (circa 1960s). A charming, ornamental piece with rustic and colourful details throughout.

Amongst those potters whose work was sold by La Roue were well known master ceramicists, Robert Picault and Georges Pelletier. There were a number of other contributors, many of whom sold work unsigned but under the La Roue umbrella which held a reputation for making high quality and very original, delightful works.
