Ricard ceramic ashtray, signed F.Gal, France circa 1970

Ricard ceramic ashtray, signed F. Gal, France, circa 1970. This ceramic comes from the ceramic workshops created by Paul Ricard. Originally, the vocation of these workshops was to create a non-industrial production of advertising pieces for "Anisette Ricard," then this production extended to art ceramics. Many artists worked in this workshop, and were allowed to sign their piece as Francine Gal for this ashtray. A very small chip on the opening.
