French Faïence Dessert Plate, Ochre

One of our "coup de cœur" finds, this beautiful one of a kind plate created using a rare technique called mixed clays can be a gorgeous catchall or a beautiful accent on a table or wall. In Apt, France, Yvonne Rigo and her family create incredible earthenware pieces using an old and very particular technique called mixed clays, making an original and refined earthenware where the clever mixture of colored earths inscribes a design throughout the thickness of the paste. Apt Faience continues to be renowned throughout the world thanks to the talent and creativity of artists such as Yvonne and her family.
