A striking mid-century ceramic planter in the exotic Blackamoor style, c.1950s–60s. This figure depicts a seated woman, gracefully balancing a vessel on her head. The vase is decorated with bold cream leaf motifs against a deep black glaze, making it an eye-catching statement piece.
Adorned with a rope belt and painted bead necklace, she embodies the dramatic styling popular in European décor of the era. Both functional and decorative, the planter can be used to display a small plant, dried flowers, or enjoyed simply as a sculptural accent.
