Vallauris pottery, originating from the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France, is renowned for its distinctive decorative ceramics dating back to Roman times. The area saw a resurgence in pottery production in the 20th century, thanks to the influence of Picasso and other artists who settled there post-World War II. Vallauris became synonymous with bold, expressive designs, marrying traditional techniques with modern aesthetics.
