Rosenthal Studio-Line – Ambrogio Pozzi “Totem” Vase (1984) *White Bisque Porcelain · Sculptural Postmodern Icon* A rare find from Rosenthal’s golden era of sculptural experimentation: the “Totem” vase, designed in 1984 by Italian architect, designer, and master ceramicist Ambrogio Pozzi. Executed in silky matte bisque porcelain, this piece distills Pozzi’s architectural clarity into a compact yet striking sculptural object. With its semi-circular silhouette, stepped relief lines, and precision-cut opening, the vase reads almost like a miniature architectural fragment — a modernist arch frozen in porcelain. Its tactile matte surface captures light softly, emphasizing the geometry without distraction. Designer — Ambrogio Pozzi (1931–2022) Pozzi was one of Italy’s most disciplined modern designers: a professor at the Istituto d’Arte di Cantù, a collaborator with major Italian manufacturers, and an influential voice in postwar ceramic form. His vocabulary is unmistakable — pure geometry, strong profiles, rhythmic repetition — all present in the “Totem” series he created for Rosenthal. His work is included in international museum collections, celebrated for its thoughtful fusion of sculpture and function. **Details** • **Model:** “Totem” • **Designer:** Ambrogio Pozzi • **Manufacturer:** Rosenthal Studio-Line, Germany • **Year:** 1984 • **Material:** Matte bisque porcelain • **Colour:** Pure white • **Dimensions:** approx.
