ABOUT PRODUCTID 1838
This ceramic vase from Vallauris, France (1960s), exemplifies mid-century modern French artistry. The organic, asymmetrical silhouette features a large, slanted opening and an integrated sculptural handle, referencing the era's modernist design ethos. The body is crafted from glazed ceramics in a deep, saturated black, with expressive streaks of fiery red, white, and gray applied in a dynamic, lava-like motif. The glaze decoration evokes the movement of flames; the white areas are slightly textured and foamy, contrasting with the smooth, glossy black and red surfaces. The base bears the impressed “Vallauris” mark. With its substantial size (height 29 cm, width 15 cm, length 18 cm), the vase accommodates generous bouquets, while the wide mouth reinforces its functional appeal. The condition is excellent—no chips, cracks, or restoration; the glaze remains pristine and lustrous. This vase speaks in the voice of the 1960s, when French ceramics embraced bold color and dynamic movement. The flame-inspired glaze and expressive color application echo natural phenomena, channeling the vibrancy and organic influences of its time. The glossy surface plays with light, shifting in tone as the day passes, as if the ceramic itself is animated by its own energy. It tells the story of an era when craft and art seamlessly merged, and each object was a unique, expressive creation. The Vallauris vase may be paired with furniture featuring clean, geometric lines to emphasize its dynamic presence, or introduced into an eclectic collector’s interior
