This range will bear the name Primavera, a reference to the name of the store which will distribute it, and to the freshness of this very particular production. Artists, decorators and craftsmen will join forces to produce pieces that will mark their era. This magnificent fruit basket in polychrome earthenware combines pineapple, pear, melon, bunches of grapes and other trompe-l'oeil sweets.

The Primavera ceramic bowl is a French production around 1920. It is marked Primavera in capital letters on the reverse. Slight traces of friction should be noted on the braid of the fruit basket.

30cm in diameter, 23cm in height.
