Description from the seller
Splendid and eccentric vintage Italian artistic ceramic table service, consisting of a large carafe / decanter for wine or water with sculptural and modern design and 4 matching goblets / glasses.
Made and painted entirely by hand by the renowned FIMA (Fabbrica Italiana Maioliche Artistiche) Deruta workshop, famous for its craftsmanship and innovative design in the heart of Umbria.
The service stands out for its dynamic lines inspired by Mid-Century / Art Deco, with a twisted, elongated handle in black and white, enriched by geometric motifs, diamonds, and multi-colored raised details (black, red and white) on a pale cream / straw-yellow striped background.
The carafe bears the original hand-painted mark at the base: "FIMA DERUTA".
A set with great visual impact, perfect for everyday use, as a decorative element, or as a collectible for lovers of Italian artistic ceramics of the 20th century.
