Vintage ceramic vase A. Fazio Vallauris 50s

The vase is in very good condition, no accidents or cracks. It should be noted, however, some enamel jumps of a few millimeters on the edge of the vase, around the base, very discreet. A tiny enamel jump also on the outer edge of the neck, barely visible 2 millimeters. The ceramic is beautifully made, it was turned and then glazed, with brown, green and orange enamel decorations, part of which are fairly free brush traces while being geometric, while the other part has been scarified, at the tip, slightly hollow. All quite shiny, except for the scarified brown stripes which are a little more matte. The white enamel inside the vase is slightly cracked, which absolutely does not prevent its use, it is very superficial. The piece is marked with a hollow heel under enamel a. Fazio, craftsman, vallauris. This vase is typical of the production of Antoine Fazio, potter of vallauris, of rather rustic appearance, with graphic motifs enhanced by touches of orange enamel. Pretty slender shape with a round neck reminiscent of a bulb vase. French craftsmanship of the 50s/60s.
