Description from the seller
Important decorative vase with lid from the prestigious Arte Morbelli Italy production, belonging to the model "Giada", made in fine porcelain engraved by aquaforte (etching) and embellished with 24 kt gold decorations.
The work stands out for its refined artistic craftsmanship that combines elegant pearl-gray and anthracite shades with rich gold decorations. Across the entire surface develops a complex ornamental apparatus characterized by floral motifs, vegetal elements, and figures inspired by the East, masterfully integrated into the decorative design.
The main decoration depicts female figures in traditional costumes, inserted in a composition rich in details, typical of the high-end artistic productions of the Morbelli manufactory. The aquaforte engravings give depth and visual richness to the entire surface.
The original lid completes the piece and is topped by a small golden stylized figure that further enriches its ornamental value.
