1950s Vallauris Fish Ceramic Platter

Vallauris on the Côte d'Azur had its prime in the 1950s, attracting pottery powerhouses such as Pablo Picasso and Robert Picault. The commune is known as the city of clay – and with good reason, as it's been a hub for pottery since ancient times. Designs are recognised for their lead glazes and Mediterranean-inspired colour palettes, both of which are on full display in this playful platter from the 1950s. 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.
