Small Ceramic Lidded Box – France – 1960s – Patinated Glaze with Modern Geometric Design Description: This is a small ceramic lidded box, made in France in the 1960s, showcasing a unique fusion of modernist geometry and traditional craftsmanship. The surface features a hand-decorated lid, resting on chabottée (roughly textured) earthenware, offering a contrast between glazed and raw clay areas. The colors are a vibrant combination of white, green, and blue, with intentional brown patches where the pottery has been left partially unglazed, adding a sense of authenticity and aged texture. The decorative pattern includes overlapping circles, intersecting lines, and rhythmic abstract forms, all painted in a distinct modernist style reminiscent of 1960s ceramic design. Key features: Made in France, circa 1960 Ceramic body with patinated glaze Colors: white, green, blue, brown (partial glazing) Lid with abstract geometric motifs Small size, ideal as a decorative box or functional container Aesthetic balance between raw texture and bold design This box is perfect as a decorative accent, whether on a bookshelf, desk, or side table.
