Fajalauza earthenware sugar bowl with handles, Granada, Spain, circa 1970

Lovely covered sugar bowl with two handles in glazed Granada earthenware, hand-decorated with cobalt blue arabesques and foliage. The slightly fluid glaze reveals the typical red Fajalauza earth through its transparency, creating delicate shades of blue, soft gray, and pink depending on the light—a depth of tone rare in this traditional production. Coming from the great Andalusian tradition, this hand-decorated decoration perpetuates the Mudéjar spirit: organic motifs, free lines, and luminous brilliance. No stamp. Good overall condition, glossy glaze, no cracks, one very subtle glaze flaw on the rim of the lid. Diameter 10.5 cm, Height 14 cm, Depth 9.5 cm. Both rustic and refined, ideal in a bohemian kitchen or a contemporary Mediterranean setting. The return of vibrant glazes and earth-tone contrasts.
