Description
Mid-century French ceramic vase by Tapis Vert (circa 1960s). Elegant, graceful & sophisticated, this is a wonderful piece of subtle hue & masterful craftsmanship. The horizontal lines formed from the potter's throwing are reminiscent of a misty haze over a savannah, the darker grass from the plain rising from the vase's base appear inclined by the breeze. They are incised into the piece adding a textural quality to the already stunning visuals. The vase is in fair condition overall as there is evident chipping on the lip & at the base of the piece. It has been priced accordingly. Please see the accompanying photos. It is signed on the underside 'Tapis Vert Vallauris'. Upon request a video may be provided. About Tapis Vert: The workshop was opened in 1950 by Claire & Ren Batigne in the town famous for the presence of Picasso & its once thriving potteries in the 1950s & 60s. The main thrower was Blaise Aielo, assisted by Albert Thiry, Claude Verlinde & Franois Natoli. Until 1966, the workshop appealed to many artists such as Amde Ozenfant, Prince Rodolphe de Faucigny Lucinge, Irving Hoffman, Nicolas de Stael & Jacques Prvert. in 1966 the factory was taken over by Blaise Aielo.(Ref: Marks & signatures of ceramics of the French Riviera by Jean-Claude Martin).
