Soliflore vase "bottle" in glazed ceramic dated signed AR 78

Very beautiful and very decorative soliflore vase in the shape of a bottle. Dated 1978 and signed ar (possibly by the french ceramist and sculptor alain rufas in vallauris), see photo below. In glazed terracotta in earth tones of grey, green and brown, we notice the pretty artisanal work of the clay with the raised presence of the pottery thread. Height 34 cm including 6 cm for the collar, diameter 10.5 cm at the base and 2.5 cm at the collar. This very natural, refined and chic vase, completely in line with the current trend, can accommodate a pretty flower or will be a decorative piece in your interior.
