Description from the seller

1970s Bertoncello – Sculptural Ceramic Vase by Roberto Rigon – Italian Mid-Century Modern Design

A striking example of Italian Mid-Century Modern ceramics, this sculptural vase was designed by Roberto Rigon for Bertoncello during the 1970s. Its bold geometric silhouette, enhanced by an elegant circular cut-out and flared neck, reflects the innovative aesthetic that made Bertoncello one of Italy's most distinctive ceramic manufacturers.

Crafted in glazed ceramic, the vase features a warm ivory crackle-textured finish beautifully contrasted by rich brown accents that emphasize its angular lines and architectural form. The refined glaze creates remarkable depth and character, making the piece equally captivating as a decorative object or as a functional vase for floral arrangements.

Produced in Italy during the 1970s, this authentic Bertoncello creation embodies the artistic experimentation and craftsmanship of the era. Highly sought after by collectors of Italian design and vintage ceramics, it is an excellent addition to any Mid-Century Modern, Space Age, or contemporary interior.

Dimensions:

Height: 36 cm (14.17 in)

Length: 17.5 cm (6.89 in)

Depth: 10.5 cm (4.13 in)


The vase is presented in very good vintage condition, with only light signs of age consistent with careful use. Its sculptural presence, distinctive glaze, and iconic design make it a highly collectible piece by Roberto Rigon for Bertoncello.
