This magnificent decorative ceramic plate is an original work from the 1970s, signed by Jacques de Chateneuil (better known by his artist name, Jacques Massard), a graduate of the École des Arts Décoratifs. Crafted during his time at the renowned Poterie de la Brague (French Riviera), this unique piece perfectly illustrates the ceramist's dreamlike and surreal world. We adore the delicate hand-painted graphics, the interplay of geometric hatching, and the vibrant touches of emerald green that contrast with the earthy tones of the deep-sea fish. A poetic and singular collector's item, ideal for adding a mid-century or cabinet of curiosities touch to your wall decor.

The plate dates from the 1970s and is in perfect condition. Signed "J. de Ch.", the signature confirms that it is a unique piece, entirely hand-painted and designed by the artist. We also have the "Flight" plate by the same artist.
