The piece features a classic ovoid silhouette with gently sloping shoulders and a narrow mouth. Its surface combines a dark glaze with a gold-bronze metallic crackle effect on the upper surface, creating a warm and highly decorative contrast.

The unmarked terracotta base is typical of artisanal studio productions in Vallauris during the post-war period, when the region was noted for its ceramic innovation. The metallic finish and subtle irregularities give it a strong sculptural presence, perfect for modern or vintage interiors.

In very good vintage condition, with light signs of wear consistent with age and no structural damage. A refined and timeless piece of mid-20th-century French ceramics. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
