About the Item
Trio of fun coffee or hot chocolate cups and saucers, painted to resemble wood, with strong Red, Yellow and Orange glazed interiors.
Designed by French ceramicist, Eugène Grandjean. These don’t have the Vallauris mark, but they’re a good period copy and hand painted. Perhaps produced in Portugal.
The family studio of Grandjean-Jourdan made 'faux bois' (fake wood) designs through the 1950s. These three are not originals, as they don't have the right mark. The originals were produced by Atelier Grandjean-Jourdan in their Vallauris pottery in the south of France (the region where Picasso produced his ceramic works). They were much copied. These don’t have the correct Vallauris mark but they’re a very good period copy and hand painted.
Generously sized, perfect for milky morning coffee or a cheeky hot chocolate. I found these in a Lisbon flea market and stuffed them into my luggage.
Originals are hard to come by, and priced accordingly. As these are not originals, and not in perfect condition, they're priced for practical use.
These are big cups, perfect for morning coffee or a hot chocolate. About 13cm diameter and 10cm deep. Saucers are 19cm long x 14 cm wide.
