French Ceramic Decorative Bowl with Abstract Motif by Jean Rivier, circa 1960s
By Jean Rivier
Located in London, GB
Vintage French ceramic decorative bowl with abstract motif attributed to Jean Rivier (circa 1960s). A small, circular shaped bowl / vide-poche of enamel with a modern linear decoration reminiscent of a labyrinth. The subtle yellow backdrop colour contrasts with the chalk-white surround of the bowl's interior and the lustrous chocolate brown edge and exterior. The piece is filled with character and charm. Unsigned but undoubtedly attributable to Rivier. This gallery has another signed piece by this well known ceramicist and the link between the two is unambiguous. In good vintage condition commensurate with age. Please view all accompanying photos to best appreciate the beauty and condition of the piece. Upon request a short video clip of the ceramic can be provided.
