The body is deeply etched with Blin's characteristic sgraffito decoration: a whimsical band of primeval motifs including a wheel, a fish, stylised figures, a spiral, and geometric bordering, set against his signature cloudy, misty glaze in soft blue-white and charcoal tones. The piece stands on four small stub feet, with a pale robin's-egg blue glaze to the interior. In good overall condition. Signature impressed on the underside: 'J. Blin'. Upon request, a video will be provided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/span\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eH 17.5 cm \/ 6.9\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eW 29 cm \/ 11.4\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eD 21.5 cm \/ 8.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eAbout the Artist:\u003c\/span\u003e Jacques Blin (1920–1995), French ceramicist, was an engineer by trade but with a love for the visual arts. His style is immediately recognisable, characterised by a more or less misty appearance in the glaze and by decoration deeply marked in the raw clay, a method he used throughout his career. He frequently used fanciful birds, primitive animals, stylised figures, and whimsical abstract motifs in his works, which are always signed 'J. Blin'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bureau of Interior Affairs (BIA London)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57402737099132,"sku":"SKU 2849","price":1920.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1764\/8437\/files\/IMG_9620_f3d750f8-f83b-4c86-98f9-402403702d16.jpg?v=1788519490","url":"https:\/\/bialondon.com\/products\/vintage-french-ceramic-pot-by-jacques-blin-circa-1960s","provider":"Bureau of Interior Affairs (BIA London)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
