This striking ceramic tea set presents a compelling example of mid-century design, echoing the experimental spirit of the Vallauris pottery movement. The set is distinguished by its dramatic glaze, a deliberate "lava drip" effect rendered in a high-contrast palette of blue and black. This dynamic interplay of color and texture creates a visual tension that is both bold and refined, showcasing the influence of Vallauris. The forms themselves, from the angular teapot to the sculptural cups and saucers, speak to a design sensibility that embraces asymmetry and expressive contours. While the set bears no maker's mark, it is a compelling study in mid-century ceramic aesthetics, revealing a dedication to both innovative glazing techniques and distinctive, unconventional forms. The wear to the bases adds a subtle layer of history, hinting at the set's past use and enjoyment.
