Italian tin-glazed urn with volute handles, 20th century, Castelli
Height 36 cm, diameter min 10 max 20

Decorative urn in Italian ceramic produced in the town of Castelli (Abruzzo), characterized by a base with little feet, a central body painted with a pastoral landscape depicting trees and a small house, and elaborately double-voluted handles. The color palette uses the classic maiolica colors – greens, yellows and blues – on a tin-glazed terracotta background in off-white.

The object shows visible damage to the upper parts of the volute handles, with evident chipping or losses in the ceramic structure. The glaze appears uniform, though the typical fine cracks compatible with the age of the object may be present.

Urna italiana in maiolica con manici a voluta, XX secolo, Castelli
Alto 36cm diametro min 10 max 20

Urna decorativa in ceramica italiana prodotta nella città di Castelli (Abruzzo), caratterizzata da una base con piedini, un corpo centrale dipinto con un paesaggio pastorale raffigurante alberi e una casetta, e distintivi manici elaborati a doppia voluta. La tavolozza cromatica utilizza i classici colori della maiolica – verdi, gialli e blu – su uno sfondo di terracotta smaltata allo stagno di colore bianco sporco.

L’oggetto presenta danni visibili alle parti superiori dei manici a voluta, con evidenti scheggiature o perdite nella struttura ceramica. Lo smalto appare omogeneo, sebbene possano essere presenti le tipiche sottili screpolature compatibili con l’età dell’oggetto.
