This earthenware, with its great graphic rigor, embodies the modernist renewal of table arts infused by the Longwy factory.
Designed under the stylistic influence of Maurice Paul Chevallier, the "Betty" model breaks away from traditional naturalism to impose pure geometric lines.
The structure stands out with a molded relief background resembling wickerwork, designed to isolate and drain asparagus, while the greige glaze is combined with a frieze of hand-painted circular dots on the handles in moss green and earth brown tones. A characterful utilitarian piece that brings a historical signature and true added value to a contemporary table.
