Description from the seller
Collection of 6 vases and amphorae in polychrome ceramic – Italy – 20th century
Description
Decorative collection consisting of six different vases and amphorae in polychrome ceramic, characterized by shapes and motifs inspired by different Italian artistic ceramic traditions.
The lot presents notable variety of shapes: biansated vases, footed amphorae, a vase with a lid and a vase with a restless profile with small side handles. Surfaces richly decorated in blue, yellow, green, turquoise and brown tones, with floral, vegetal, geometric and figurative motifs.
One specimen features medallions with figures in costume, while the other maiolicas reinterpret floral motifs, arabesques and decorative repertories of traditional Italian ceramics.
