AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large decorative vase in glazed ceramic characterized by a relief workmanship with incised geometric motifs and glossy polychrome glazes.

The body features a bright orange band with incised texture, flanked by areas of green glaze and natural tones. The color combination, together with the sculptural treatment of the surface, recalls Italian ceramic production from the second half of the 20th century, in the style of Tuscan manufactories associated with the Bitossi aesthetic language.

The slender form with a side handle and the structured decoration make the object particularly decorative even without flowers, ideal as a furnishing element in vintage, retro, or mid-century settings.

• Body diameter: 18 cm
• Maximum diameter with handle: 22 cm
