Product description
Beautiful mid-century modern ceramic wall plaque/relief plate by the celebrated Belgian ceramicist Marie-Henriette Bataille (1931–2014) for the renowned Atelier Dour studio. Founded in 1947, the workshop became famous for its organic, expressive brutalist style. This piece features an incised low-relief illustration of a stylized vase with flowers, decorated with a combination of earthy brown, cream, and metallic-toned glazes with subtle lavender highlights. The reverse shows the authentic regional red earthenware clay, stamped "DOUR" and initialed "MHB". An excellent addition to any collection of high-end vintage European studio pottery, perfect as a sculptural wall accent for modern interiors. Details & Specifications: Designer/Artist: Marie-Henriette Bataille Manufacturer/Studio: Atelier Dour Country of Origin: Belgium Period: 1960 - 1979 (Mid-Century Modern) Material: Glazed Earthenware / Ceramics Style: Brutalist, Modernist, Studio Pottery Mounting: Includes original wire hanger for easy wall mounting. ( Removed to avoid abrasion of the edge during shipment, but easy to re-attach) Overall Condition: Very Good (vintage condition with age-appropriate character). Front: The glazed front surface and relief detailing are beautifully preserved with no chips or glaze flakes. Reverse: Features a superficial, stable firing crack in the clay on the back. This is an original kiln-flaw from manufacturing, completely normal for rustic 1960s workshop pottery, and does not impact the structural strength or front appearance. Dimension: Height 32 cm, Width 22, Depth 2.50 cm Shipping & Packaging: Will be packed with professional care using heavy-duty bubble wrap and a sturdy box to ensure safe transit via Whoppah's shipping services.
