An Oversized Bloom | French Faience, circa 1890
A sculptural faience garden seat by Delphin Massier of Vallauris, modeled as an open flower with graduated pink petals surrounding a textured yellow center. Intertwined leaves and stems form the openwork base, richly glazed in green, ochre, and brown.
Give it a place in a sunroom or beside a favorite chair, where the flower can be appreciated from above and around the room. Its exuberant botanical form brings color, imagination, and the pleasure of an unexpected antique into everyday surroundings.

Circa 1890 | Vallauris, France
Glazed Faience
