Pair of ceramic vases, Sainte Radegonde, circa 1940

The ceramics of Sainte Radegonde, produced mainly during the 1930s and 1940s, are known for their rustic charm and traditional craftsmanship. Made in the village of Sainte-Radegonde in southwestern France, these pieces often reflect regional folk art influences, with earthy glazes, simple forms, and hand-painted decorations. Typically utilitarian—such as baskets, bowls, and jugs—they evoke a sense of everyday French rural life. Today, they are appreciated for their authenticity, historical value, and warm, timeless aesthetic.
