AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of Italica Ars Sculptural Vases – Space Age Spiral Design – Atomic Yellow – 1970s

Description
Incredible pair of ceramic vases from the famous Italica Ars manufacture (Lastra a Signa, Florence). These pieces represent the peak of formal research in the 1970s, with a dynamic ribbed machining that creates a unique play of light and shadow on the glossy surface.

Manufacture: Italica Ars.

Period: circa 1970-1979.

Style: Mid-Century Modern / Space Age.

Color: Glossy high-density ochre yellow.

Condition Report (Technical Report)
Tall Vase: Excellent condition, intact, glossy glaze and defect-free.
Dimensions: H. ~18.5 cm, L. max ~19 cm

Short Vase: Shows aging signs consistent with the era (underglaze crazing and fine surface cracks). These marks, purely aesthetic, do not compromise the object's structural stability and attest to its originality and historical value. Both pieces bear the original base mark.
Dimensions: H ~13.5 cm, L max ~17.5 cm

The photos are detailed and numerous and are an integral part of the description; if you have any doubts, do not participate in the auction.

This is a sale by a private collector.
The packaging is done with care, protected and filmed.
Shipping costs also cover packaging materials, handling, transport, and insurance.
Shipping costs outside the EU, to Scandinavian countries and the Islands, may incur additional charges.
Happy bidding to all
