This charming vintage set from the 1980s includes a bowl and a small serving dish or platter, perfect for appetizers or as a spoon rest. Both pieces feature a mottled marbled glaze, showcasing a swirling mix of ochre, green and earthy tones. The dish notably features a subtle spoon impression on its surface, adding a unique touch to its design.
Jaspeé pottery is made using a marbling technique where different colored clays or slips are carefully layered or swirled together to create unique, flowing patterns. The mixed material is shaped into the desired form, preserving the striking marbled pattern, and then finished with a clear glaze to enhance the effect and protect the surface. Each piece is unique due to the natural variations in the marbling process.
Hailing from Dieulefit, a region renowned for its traditional pottery, these pieces embody the craftsmanship of the region, famous for its artistic flair and ceramic expertise. The condition is excellent, with the vivid glaze preserving its vibrant appeal.
Dieulefit, nestled in the Drôme department of south-eastern France, has a long-standing reputation for pottery, dating back to Roman times. Known for its production of quality stoneware and earthenware, this picturesque village continues to be a hub for ceramic artists, drawing inspiration from the surrounding natural beauty and historical techniques.
