Vallauris (South of France)

Something like old stoneware from vallauris.

Yes thanks Annette,It's good to have someone who can answer Vallauris questions as I love Vallauris but know little about the workshops in that area.

I wouldnt say that I can answer everything and things aren't always very well documented but it is as you know a learning process. There is also a good blog to check out called Vallaurik- think he lives in Vallauris. Sadly the town has gone a bit downhill of late, but if you can get hold of a copy of Annie Lajoix L'Age d'or de Vallauris you can see that some great things were produced.

hi I'm just back from vallauris where I was staying while putting up some sculptures in cannes there are a lot of new potters trying to revive the towns image tho non are in the famous biennale de vallauris this year so they are planning an alternative event by the way I think vallaurik is belgian he has been selling some of his collection on ebay

fish roundel....with capron impressed

and a website collection...http://www.colceram.online.fr/vallauris.htm

well dantheman if u are talking about ugly then look at this.... todays find.....shocking to think that delicious goodies are"supposed to" be displayed on this monster. i would think that only bright colored Indian cookies would show off best.

my latest Gerbino piece

Who is this one by?

I seem to feel I do but cant tell you why - I dont have anything like iit. Is it signed? I like the shape.

I know it's by a talented maker but there are no written clues.

its a nice capron dan bravo

they are not always signed no doubt about the shape similar colours to one in the ceramic museam vallauris
