Ceramic sculpture

Total weight of the piece: 1.10 kg.
Glazed ceramic helmet inspired by the iconic Mandalorian helmet, with scale and wave decorations in traditional ceramic style. Refined glossy glazed ceramic helmet shaped like a Mandalorian helmet (inspired by the classic Star Wars design).
The upper surface is entirely covered by a dense pattern of stylized scales/waves in cobalt blue, subcrystal glaze on a white background, recalling traditional Asian ceramic decorations (inspired by Japanese seigaiha patterns or the scales of fish from Eastern porcelain). A central vertical red band, adorned with swirls and floral/arabesque motifs in red, is glazed in the third firing on a white background, dividing the dome elegantly.
The lower mask and the side parts feature the same scale motif, but executed in deep red in the third firing on white/pink background, with embossed details (lateral ears and structural elements) highlighted by red outlines and accents.
The finish of the dome is glossy and uniform, typical of high-quality glazed ceramics, with light craquelure effects visible in some points that give an artisanal character.
The piece is mounted on a simple white base, ideal for display. It is a unique piece with strong visual impact, blending the pop language of contemporary culture with the refinement of traditional ceramic decorations, perfect for collectors of contemporary art, design, and cinema-inspired pieces. Conditions: excellent, with glossy glaze and vivid colors.
