Anchor Wolf & Moss is pleased to present a stunning, highly collectible pair of authentic mid-century ceramic plates from the renowned atelier of Roger Capron in Vallauris, France, dating to the 1950s/1960s.
This matching set features a beautiful, vivid turquoise glaze acting as the backdrop for Capron’s iconic, stylized primitive graphic designs—one featuring a bird and the other a fish, rendered in deep blue-black brushstrokes. Finding a matching thematic pair from this celebrated graphic run is a rare opportunity for any serious 20th-century design enthusiast or pottery collector.
Features & Details:
• Authenticity: Both plates feature the distinctive, stylized minimalist maker's marks on the unglazed base ring, identifying them to the Capron atelier.
• Visual Appeal: The striking combination of the vibrant turquoise glaze and minimalist geometric lines makes these exceptional display pieces for a mid-century modern, boho-chic, or eclectic interior.
Condition Report:
These plates are in beautiful, stable vintage condition and present wonderfully. Because we believe in total transparency, please note the following minor, age-appropriate characteristics:
• The front surfaces show some light, typical vintage crazing and minor glaze wear/faint surface staining from age, giving them a wonderful authentic patina.
• The reverse side of the fish plate shows a small, minor glaze pop/flea bite on the unglazed foot ring from the firing process.
• No structural cracks, major chips, or repairs. Please review all photos carefully as they form part of the description.
Shipping & Handling:
These pieces will be handled with the utmost care. They will be meticulously double-boxed, wrapped in premium bubble packaging, and shipped with full insurance and tracking to ensure they arrive safely at their new home.
