A striking and sculptural ceramic service set from Vallauris, France, dating to the mid-20th century. Executed in rich deep brown earthenware with vibrant emerald-green lava glaze, this ensemble exemplifies the expressive, organic aesthetic for which Vallauris ceramics are celebrated.
The set includes a coffee pot, lidded sugar bowl, creamer, cups, and matching square plates, all unified by bold hand-formed silhouettes and a dramatic drip-glaze effect. The tactile forms, thick walls, and glossy volcanic glaze create a powerful visual presence while remaining fully functional.
Produced during the golden era of Vallauris pottery—when artists and ateliers pushed ceramic design toward sculptural modernism—this set reflects the influence of figures such as Roger Capron, Jacques Blin, and Robert Picault, while maintaining a distinctive character of its own.
An evocative and highly decorative Vallauris service set, ideal for collectors of French post-war ceramics or as a bold statement in a modern interior.
