AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sculptural ceramic jug by the Italian manufacturer Bitossi, created in the 1960s in the style of the famous Rimini-Blu designs by Aldo Londi. The three-dimensionally crafted form with a long spout and generous handle is characterized by a surrounding relief decoration of floral and geometric patterns. The intensely red glaze enhances the expressive effect and exemplifies the experimental, craft-oriented design language of the Bitossi workshops during this period. The object combines function and sculpture in a characteristic way and is a striking example of Italian mid-century design. A coveted collector's item for enthusiasts of Aldo Londi, Bitossi, and high-quality studio ceramics of the post-war era.

The jug has no chips or cracks. A fire defect on the handle is documented by photo.

The goods are wrapped in padding foil and enclosed in bio-styrofoam within a double-walled carton for shipment via DHL.
