Fat Lava Vallauris pocket empty cup

Superb vintage VALLAURIS fruit bowl or pocket tray in Fat Lava style, unsigned but perhaps made by Marino LE VAUCOUR in the 50s/60s Two "primitive" patterns hollowed out and enameled in red stand out from the Fat Lava cover like engravings of hunting scenes in a prehistoric cave: an anthropomorphic drawing representing a seated human armed with a bow a zoomorphic drawing of a running antelope The great originality of this piece, which makes it very attractive, also lies in the bottom of the dish made up of bluish crystals (glass or natural stone?) such as would be found in a geode. A feeling of depth is perceptible. rare piece in good condition length 40 cm width max. 20.5 cm height 7 cm weight 1.480 kg
