Enameled stoneware liqueur set signed Denbac – France, 1950s-60s
Superb liqueur set in stoneware signed Denbac, emblematic of post-war French ceramics.
The set consists of a slender bottle with its decorative ceramic stopper, eight matching goblets and a plate serving as a tray. A complete composition, both functional and decorative, now difficult to find in this condition and with so many elements.
Each piece features remarkable flamed enamel work, blending shades of deep blue, nuanced grey and honey brown. The natural drips, characteristic of stoneware firings, create unique organic effects and give the set a true sculptural presence.
The bottle, with its fluid lines and elegant handle, embodies an aesthetic that is both modernist and artisanal, typical of Denbac productions. The compact, textured goblets perfectly complement the set, while the tray unifies the composition, making it an ideal piece for serving as well as decoration.
Fully signed under each element.
A set that will find its place equally well on a convivial table as in a contemporary, wabi-sabi or 50s-inspired interior.
Dimensions:
Tray: 21 cm in diameter
Bottle: 18 cm in height
Goblets: 5 cm in height
Very good general condition. No noticeable chips. No cork stopper under the ceramic decoration of the stopper (The cork stopper visible in the ambiance photo has been added for this photo, the ceramic stopper seen on the other photos is included in the set). Slight signs of wear consistent with age.
A complete and decorative piece, perfect for lovers of French ceramics or interiors with a strong character.
