AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
These two splendid objects are vintage marine-themed artistic ceramics created in the mid-20th century, both attributable to the famous production of the French Riviera and the Principality of Monaco.
Here are the details of the two pieces:
Barbotine vase polychrome (on the left): This is a precious vintage ceramic vase glazed and decorated in relief, characterized by the typical style of the French Riviera in the 1950s/60s. This specific model with koi carp, underwater vegetation and elegant handles intertwined in pure gold is part of the historic productions of the Cerdazur Monaco ateliers.
"Trompe l'oeil" aquarium lamp (on the right): It is an iconic black glossy ceramic table lamp with a splendid heart-shaped opening (or porthole) finished in gold. Inside it houses a small three-dimensional marine diorama with fish, shells and starfish in colored ceramic. This kind of atmospheric lamps is attributable to the artistic manufactories of Monaco or Vallauris (often signed by ateliers such as Kérina or Ceroc) and was very popular in the 1950s.
