Ceramic head-to-head imitation wood Grandjean Jourdan

Nice find that this tête-à-tête of the 50s of vallauris. We fell for its originality, both in terms of the trompe-l'oeil motif and the highly stylized forms of the pieces that compose it. With a plus-plus mention for the originality of the handles. The idea of imitating olive wood was born by chance when a ceramist sought to blur with a cotton the brushstrokes of the wood-colored backgrounds of one of his ceramics. Since then, the famous faux bois motif has made the fame of grandjean-jourdan father and son, sébastien and eugène. The bright orange color chosen for the interior of the rooms, adds a touch of pep to the service that will bring vivacity and joviality to coffee time. The service consists of a coffee maker, a milk jar and 2 cups and saucers. The whole is in perfect condition except for two very slight ginnings on the spout of the milk pot and on the edge of a saucer (see photo). Coffee maker: 20 cm. Milk jar: 13 cm. Cup: 7 cm. Saucer diameter: 21.5 cm. Set weight: 2.3 kg.
