Claude Champy signed dish in glazed stoneware with free edges, late 20th century

Square stoneware dish with irregular edges, featuring highly textured glaze work combining matte and glossy effects, in shades ranging from beige to black with areas of vitrified drips. The abstract decoration and high-temperature firing highlight the organic approach of Claude Champy, winner of the Grand Prix at the Biennale Internationale de Vallauris in 1982.
