A rare 1950s-60s set of six Brutalist-style pieces, signed by the ceramist Jean Austruy, who worked in his studio in Saint-Marcellin (Isère). This art ceramic features a raw, textured surface and a strong relief, particularly on the egg cups. Visually, the material plays with color, with interiors tending towards pink, and a bowl with a brilliant sheen of gold and sand tones that beautifully catch the light. Note the small asymmetrical decoration on the bowl, thinner on one side and thicker on the other. All six pieces are in perfect condition, without any cracks or chips. The bowl is 25 cm in diameter, and the five egg cups are 8.5 cm high, with a 5 cm neck diameter and a 6 cm base diameter.
