Beautiful, authentic vintage bowl / centerpiece (coupe) of foam ceramic from Vallauris, France (1960s).
This spectacular object is crafted in the iconic écume de mer (sea foam) or volcanic lava style. The exterior features a very pronounced, rough black and white texture. This forms a stunning contrast with the sleek, glossy fire-red enameled surface in the center. The biomorphic, undulating design is strongly inspired by the work of Marius Musarra (Mabyjo’s).
