The set comprises the iconic Model 860 pitcher together with six matching tumblers. The pitcher features Chambost’s characteristic sculptural silhouette with a flared body, circular handle and elegant pouring spout. Finished in a matte black glaze with a vivid green glazed interior, it perfectly illustrates the designer’s playful and modern approach to form and color.

The six accompanying tumblers, also model 860, echo the same hourglass profile and are presented in a vibrant assortment of colours. Their bold palette creates a striking visual ensemble representative of post-war French ceramic design and Chambost’s innovative use of glazed earthenware.

Produced in France and marked with the manufacturer’s stamp and model number 860, this complete set is a highly collectible example of Chambost’s work. Combining functionality with sculptural elegance, it embodies the spirit of French Mid-Century Modern design.
