I saw another one of these plaques today,it had the Giraud mark on the back,I wish I had bought the first one I saw for £30.00

made by Meynard at vallauris in 50s/60s previously worked at Safi in Morroco not very sought after but I like them

50/60s cheese plate

Right, it's a Max's piece.
He married Marius MUSARRA's daughter.
Now, it's retired as a potter and he continue as a sculptor.

60's wall plaque

I tried to translate a description of the Gerbino process,the translation is a little rough but you get the basic idea

the process "Gerbino" combines various techniques of mosaic and nériage (mixture of colourful land). Clay (earthenware) are coloured in the mass by oxides. These clays are assembled to form drawings flat. Thus made plates are formatted in a mould. After drying, the piece is cooked a first time, covered with enamel lacquer then cooked twice.

Meynard

Incised to base Vallauris Decor main Bessone

Would this be Marius Bessone? A little worn but 50p buy.

these look a little older than marius Bessone but could be early pieces he is mostly known for his volcanic glazes that he breveted(franglais) in 1958 tho by that time lots of people seemed to be doing it

Thanks Tenpot. They seem a bit flowery maybe for Marius Bessone, but I just don't know. Interesting if they are early pieces though. I shall scan the t'internet now to find out more, if it is out there.

Thanks again.

possibly La Grange?

probably Cerrene someone gave me these knew I collected Vallauris but I would never have bought them oh well another box in the shed

Here is the other post, a weird shape and pattern. I have not included any pics of the base because there is nothing on it visible due to heavy brown overglaze. It is roughly 10 inches tall, brown glaze internally and gold gilt to the spout, handle and front.
I have an inkling it is european but would welcome anything from you all




Much obliged
Lilypot

Can anyone help with identification of this tankard, please. It measures about 6.5 inches high, about 3 inches diameter, of some kind of earthenware, with a glazed almost textured exterior and a hand painted floral design, with the painted mark to the base. Many thanks in advance.

Success at last !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just saw some tile mosaic art by Jacotte Capron, does anyone have info regarding her artwork?

I saw that as well I think its hard to seperate Jacotte's and roger's work some people say the cercle de soliel stuff was Jacottes have to talk to someone who knows her

they are genuine tho may well be by Koenig Jean Gerbino's son in law who used the same stamp when he took over the atelier in the sixties.We dont generally do pricing on this forum try trawling french ebay
