$2,400.00

A short 1960s red ceramic dish by French artist Georges Pelletier. The deep crimson glaze is accentuated by gilded accents and textured detailing, radiating a sense of warmth and depth. Elevated on a custom-made metal stand, the dish transforms into a sculptural centerpiece.

Georges Pelletier, born in 1938 in Brussels, is a renowned ceramist based in Cannes, France. Pelletier began his ceramic journey at the Pioulier School in Vence in 1953 and later studied at the Académie Charpentier and the École des Arts et Métiers in Paris, honing his skills at the Poteries d’Accolay. 

Influenced by the vibrant Parisian art scene, he often visited Fernand Léger's studio. In the early 1960s, Pelletier opened his first ceramic studio in Paris, where his distinctive pieces caught the attention of Maison Bobois, leading to a successful collaboration from 1961 to 1973. Since 1973, he has worked in Cannes, creating his signature solar motif ceramics adorned with golden beads on chrome nickel rods, alongside his son.
