Beautiful set of three traditional Fajalauza deep bowls from Granada, Andalusia, featuring the iconic blue-and-white Hispano-Moresque decorative style. Each bowl is hand-painted in cobalt on a white tin glaze, showcasing classic motifs of the Granada tradition: pomegranate symbols, floral arabesques, and braided borders.
The set includes one 19th-century bowl and two 20th-century pieces, offering a wonderful comparison of historical styles within the same ceramic lineage.
Bowl 1 (Pomegranate motif) – 20th century
Classic Fajalauza pomegranate, smooth glaze, clean brushwork.
Bowl 2 (Large floral design) – 19th century
A true 19th-century example with rich hand-painted floral decoration and heavier traditional glaze. The most collectible bowl of the set.
Bowl 3 (Right bowl) – 20th century
Strong, decorative cobalt design.
Note: small glaze loss on the inner surface (see photos).

A well-placed antique does more than decorate a room - it gives it authorship. Against a contemporary interior, older objects introduce texture, balance and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated by newly made pieces alone.
This is the principle behind the LÜRON selection. We look for works that carry historical character with ease, and that feel as convincing in a Paris apartment as they do in a more modern architectural setting.
