Wheel-Thrown and Glazed Stoneware Jug – France, 2nd Half of the 20th Century.

Wheel-thrown and glazed stoneware jug, made in France during the second half of the 20th century, c. 1960–1970.

Its generous form combines a rounded body with a narrow neck accented by horizontal lines, a subtly defined pouring spout and a loop handle. The speckled brown-beige surface is enhanced by a glaze with natural, irregular tonal variations that highlight the craftsmanship of the wheel-thrown stoneware.

A piece with simple, organic lines, representative of the aesthetic of French studio pottery in the post-war period. It can be used as a jug or repurposed as a vase.

Very good overall condition.
