About the Item

French Mid-Century Vallauris Fat Lava Style Blue Pottery Lidded Vase, 1960s This striking French Mid-Century Modern ceramic vase with lid exemplifies the Fat Lava style that emerged from the Vallauris pottery region during the 1950s–1960s. Modeled in the manner of Charles Cart’s “Cyclope” pottery, the piece displays a captivating volcanic surface texture formed by the firing process — the dimples and craters subtly reveal the layers of glaze beneath the surface. The glaze palette combines dazzling shades of cobalt blue and smoky gray, creating a vibrant yet sophisticated visual effect that reflects the experimental spirit of postwar French studio ceramics. The elegant tall form, paired with its tactile glaze, makes it a compelling decorative object for any modern, eclectic, or mid-century interior. Signed on the base. Measures: 14 1/4" H × 3 3/4" Diameter Origin: Vallauris, France Period: Circa 1960s Condition: Very good vintage condition, consistent with age and use Perfect for display on a bookshelf, console, credenza, or countertop, this vase adds a sculptural accent and rich color to any setting.
