This piece is a magnificent example of the Neo-Breton Art Deco style.

Unlike classic earthenware, Fouillen's work is distinguished by its highly graphic aesthetic, stylized Celtic motifs, and vibrant color palette. The design features an elegant domed shape with a handle and a twisted rope lid knob, typical of the artist. The decoration is hand-painted with intricate floral and geometric patterns (ochre, cobalt blue, sienna red, black).
Perfect as a jewelry box, trinket box in an entryway, or simply as a decorative object on a sideboard.
In very good condition; the colors have remained remarkably vibrant. A rare, authentic, and highly decorative piece for enthusiasts or collectors of 20th-century ceramics. This piece has an attribution mark,
