AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant artistic ceramic vase from the S.A.C.A. manufactory of Sesto Fiorentino, characterized by a refined bulbous shape, short neck, and two small volute side handles, shaped with a sinuous flow.
The ivory base is graced by a vivid polychrome decoration, with large yellow flowers, emerald green leaves, blue details, and stylized vegetal motifs that intertwine in harmonious movement. The neck and base are finished with ornamental bands in shades of blue, green, and ochre, which elegantly emphasize the object's profile.
The composition blends a taste for traditional Tuscan decorative ceramics with a modern sensibility in the stylization of floral elements. The sculptural handles and the rich color palette give the vase a distinctive character, making it a pleasant furnishing accessory for classical, eclectic, or vintage interiors.
The S.A.C.A. (Società Accomandita Ceramica Artistica), founded in 1923 in Sesto Fiorentino, was one of the manufactories that contributed to the vitality of Sesto's artistic ceramic production in the twentieth century, standing out for formal and decorative experimentation.
A collectible item that testifies to the artisanal ceramic tradition of Sesto Fiorentino.
Excellent overall condition.
Dimensions: 15 x 15.5 x 12 cm.
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo. I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
