Vintage Vallauris Shell Dish

€46.00

An authentic piece of mid-century French art pottery from the legendary workshops of Vallauris. This scallop dish is a prime example of the "Ecume de Mer" (sea foam) glaze that defined the Côte d'Azur ceramic revival.

The piece features a high-gloss interaction between deep chocolate browns and vivid, electric oranges. The thick, volcanic white "lava" glaze creates a stunning textured relief against the classic shell form.
