Early 20th Century French Vallauris Art Deco Amphora Vase
Circa: 1920.
A striking early 20th-century French Vallauris amphora-form vase, dating to the 1920s–1930s. This hand-thrown ceramic piece features bold Art Deco decoration with abstract geometric motifs in rich enamel glazes, including cobalt blue, iron red, and yellow, outlined with expressive linework.
The sculptural double-handled form and balanced proportions give this piece strong presence, making it ideal as a standalone decorative object or centerpiece. Vallauris pottery from this period is celebrated for its transition from organic Art Nouveau influence into the structured forms of Art Deco, and this example captures that evolution beautifully.
