AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Coordinated pair in artistic ceramic belonging to the famous series "Rimini Blu", produced by the Bitossi manufactory of Montelupo Fiorentino and designed by master Aldo Londi.
Both pieces are authentic and date from the height of the 1960s, as certified by the marks and original codes handwritten entirely in gold under the bases.
The glaze presents a very deep and intense cobalt blue tone, with a strong visual impact.
The set consists of:
Cylindrical box with lid: Jar/pharmacy/biscuit tin shape, a rare piece to find complete. The lid is in perfect condition. Note some very small chips with missing glaze (visible in photos), a detail absolutely common for the era that does not compromise the overall aesthetics.
Spherical vase / ball vase: Excellent condition, no crazing or chipping. Beautiful geometric texture stamped and perfectly preserved.
