Cerart Monaco is the official supplier of the Prince of Monaco.
A beautiful, bold example of Monegasque Art Pottery from the 1950s.
The vases have a gorgeous, intense, three-colour glaze that would brighten up any space.
The shapes and colours aim to rekindle the joy of living.
The ornaments are treated in high relief, to give the impression of having simply been placed.
The pair is fitted with two round black colour shades that complement perfectly the colours of the lamps.
A glamorous pottery / ceramic collector's rare pair as much for its shape, its patterns, its colours as its excellent state of conservation.
They have their original maker's label, ""CERART,"" affixed to the items.

The Principality of Monaco has been renowned for its potters since 1893.
But it was the post-war period, 1946 to be exact, that marked the creation of Cérart.
While most of the decoration of the pieces is floral or from the marine world, some abstract designs, a little rarer, as on our pair of lamps, are highly sought after by collectors.
A rich creation of a bygone era, which evokes the joy of living in the post-war years and the carefree attitude of the baby boomers.
A hymn to happiness in the Mediterranean.
