Translating from French to ‘swan’, the Cygne sauce boat is a quintessential piece from Astier de Villatte. It captures the ceramicist’s penchant for the unexpected, with an elegant silhouette and a handle fashioned from the creature’s slender neck. Like others from the maker, it’s handcrafted in the Parisian workshop from black terracotta clay and dipped in a bright-white glaze.

Meet the maker:
Astier de Villatte
Old friends Ivan Pericoli and Benoît Astier de Villatte met at the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, leading to the launch of Astier de Villatte in 1996. Since the beginning, they’ve been charmed with ideas of the imperfect, finding beauty in uneven glazes, dark pockmarks and subtle ripples. But these details only emphasise the craft tale behind each piece – stories that start with a single sheet of black terracotta clay extracted from Parisian quarries. They follow traditional Roman methods to bring each ‘dream object’ to life, shaping and inscribing each one with the potter’s initials and finishing with a high-shine white porcelain glaze.
