Cups, Gilbert Portanier and Denise Ramamgno, Vallauris 1950

Gilbert Portanier and Denise Ramagno — Two Blue Glazed Terracotta Bowls with a Central Design. Elegant and full of character, these two handcrafted ceramic bowls captivate with the intensity of their deep blue glaze and the subtle texture of their rims. Although complementary, the two blues present different shades, affirming the uniqueness of each piece. Each bowl is adorned in its center with a delicately glazed medallion in earthy tones, offering a harmonious contrast of materials and colors. The rim, highlighted with a raised design with organic accents, evokes an aesthetic that is both raw and refined. Both pieces are signed on the reverse with an intaglio stamp: "DR". Note: some glaze chips are visible, as shown in the photos.
