AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Soup tureen with inner bowl with lid, sauceboat with lid, and serving plate, in Art Deco style designed by Gio Ponti for the Richard-Ginori manufacture in the 1930s with a minimalist design featuring a thin red border and a central decoration depicting a small brown stylized sailing boat with yellow and red sails on blue waves.
These pieces were produced at the Richard-Ginori factory in San Cristoforo, Milan.
On the back of every piece in this lot are the Richard Ginori marks, the manufacturing numbers, and cold-stamp marks certifying its authenticity.
Gio (Giovanni) Ponti (Milan 1891 - 1979), after graduating in architecture, in the twenties began his collaboration as a designer with Richard Ginori, reworking the company’s design. In 1925 he won the Gran Prix at the Paris Exposition Universelle. An architect, designer, essayist, and academic, he was one of the promoters of the revival of Italian design in the postwar era.
