Vintage Brigitte Bardot motif coffee set. Related coffee pitcher, milk jug and sugar bowl with animal motifs. Four cups and five saucers in perfect condition. Very minor nicks to other pieces. This whimsical coffee set is the brainchild of the Grandjean-Jourdan ceramic factory in Vallauris, situated between Antibes and Cannes in Provence. A traditional pottery particularly noted for its fantasy pieces hand painted on a faux bois glaze. This set comprises of eight Bridget Bardot cups and saucers, one related giraffe coffee pitcher, one buffalo milk jug and one chicken sugar bowl. Due to the soft body of the pottery, some of the pieces have inevitably attracted the odd nick over the passage of time. This set was sourced by us from a dealer in France. And dates to the 1950s.

Vallauris is a pottery region in south-eastern France, near Cannes. Pottery has been made there since ancient times. The area grew as a pottery centre in the late 19th century, but was made famous by Pablo Picasso who made a huge body of work there between 1948 and 1955.

Another well-known potter, Robert Picault was a close friend, colleague and next-door-neighbour to Picasso, and the two learnt from each other aspects of the other's specialities. A relationship celebrated in a recent issue of. We also have a Robert Picault sunburst jug in a. SEE IMAGE 10 AND A SEPARATE.
