Faenza - Bottega Gatti - Vase - Height: 32 cm - Pottery

This vase is a splendid production of Bottega Gatti of Faenza, internationally renowned for its maiolica ceramic pieces with metallic reflections and lustre glazes. The piece in the photo stands out for its precious ruby-red color that shifts, enriched by coppery, golden shades and blue-green reflections along the flared upper rim. The third-firing reduction technique (used since 1928 by founder Riccardo Gatti) gives the surface a unique shine and iridescent variegation for each individual piece, simulating the effect of polished metal or Favrile glass on terracotta.

It is sold as-is due to wear, as shown in the photos.
