Artisanal ceramic compote bowl "Serra", 1960

Artisanal ceramic compotier from the 60s made by Jordi or Joan Serra from the famous family ceramic art workshop "Serra" (signature under the foot) which has existed since 1928 near Barcelona (Spain). Abstract designs located in its center and very pretty gradient of brown with a speckled effect. Compotier in excellent condition which will fit perfectly into a brutalist and/or Scandinavian decor. Dimensions: diameter 28cm, height 11.5cm. A short history of the family workshop. The Serra family has been an important line of Catalan potters for 3 generations. Antoni Serra Fiter, master of Joan Miró and Llorens Artigas among others, began artistic ceramics at the beginning of the 20th century. His sons Antonio, Enrique and Josep Serra founded the ceramics company in 1928. Today, Jordi Serra, a member of the third generation, is still at the head of the "Serra" workshop in the Catalan town of Cornellá de Llobregat near Barcelona. He was able to elevate and perpetuate the “Serra” pottery workshop in international art by perpetuating the family know-how with various exhibitions in countries such as France, Germany, Japan and the United States. .
