Product description
Rare stoneware pitcher signed "Atelier La Colombe" (Jean-Marie Maure) - Vintage 1970s
Description: Superb handcrafted stoneware pitcher, an iconic creation from the "La Colombe" workshop, founded by the renowned ceramist Jean-Marie Maure in Tain-l'Hermitage (Drôme, France).
This piece exemplifies the excellence of French ceramic production in the 1970s. It is distinguished by a deep, reactive glaze: magnificent white drips contrast with the deep green enamel, all on a robust brown clay base. The base bears the workshop's typical incised signature: a stylized dove in flight.
A collector's item with a timeless design, ideal for a statement interior or for enriching a mid-century French stoneware collection.
Material: Glazed stoneware (natural clays). Dimensions: 18 cm (height) x 9 cm (base diameter).
Weight: 655 g.
Signature: "Dove" emblem engraved under the base (official mark of Jean-Marie Maure).
Condition: The item is in good overall vintage condition. There is a surface tension crack at the handle joint (visible in the detailed photos). This is a common mark on handcrafted pieces from this period, attesting to its age. The handle remains perfectly stable. The piece is sold as is (see photos, an integral part of the description).
Professional, highly secure, insured, and tracked shipping.
