A charming, decorative piece with rustic and colourful details throughout. The ceramic is of a small scale designed to resemble a small village's fountain. In good overall condition although there is a missing enamel leaf (see photos) which may be a production fault or other loss. As is often the case with La Roue, the piece is unsigned but undoubtedly the work of their studio. Please enjoy the photos accompanying this listing. A video may be provided upon request. About the Artists: La Roue opened in 1962 and was run by Alexandre and Betty Fadas. La Roue was a studio which sold ceramics in the town of Vallauris, in the South of France. Its wares were made by various potters and artisans in the area. 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. La Roue had a reputation for making high quality and very original works.
