White slipware plate from Gien, 1970.

Supreme refinement! 1960 artichoke dish in pure white earthenware with its relief of leaves, a perfect blend of futuristic simplicity and useful delicacy, of course signed by Gien. The cavities are the size of a grapefruit, a strawberry tartlet, a handful of radishes, broad beans, Nice olives or roasted almonds, a large spoonful of tarama, and yes, also that of an artichoke. Sensational piece. 37cm x 24cm. Cavities 10cm. A second identical dish is available. Perfect condition.
