1960s Ombre Accolay Vase

This 1960s ombré vase has a smooth, curvaceous form and intriguing textured glaze, designed by André Boutaud, Louis Dangon, Slavic Paley and Raude who make up Accolay - a French brand that reached new career heights when Christian Dior ordered 300 ceramic buttons for his New Look collection. Hand-thrown, the vase has intricate groovings, textural variations and a contrasting brown and blue colourway which is thought to resemble the colour of the sea on the Cote d’Azur. Please note, this item is a truly original vintage piece with slight imperfections and distinctive characteristics that add to its charm and celebrate its unique history.
