A tiny hand-painted creamer in the Moustiers tradition — white faïence with a loose, gestural floral and bird motif in cobalt, yellow, and green. Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, the Proven çal village perched above a gorge in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, has been producing this style of painted faïence since the 17th century. At this scale it works as a creamer, a bud vase, or simply a beautiful small object on a shelf. Sourced from a brocante in Marseille. dimensions: 1.75"dia x 2.25"H Show more
