AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare sculptural ceramic centerpiece "Natura Morta" designed and produced by Ceramiche Bertinazzo (Nove / Marostica), in Veneto in the 1970s.
Monumental handcrafted glazed ceramic centerpiece, a superb expression of Italian craftsmanship by Ceramiche Bertinazzo.
The work depicts an elegant three-dimensional composition of fruit (bananas, apples/peaches, and foliage) arranged in perfect relief within a large oval tray, creating a sophisticated trompe-l'œil effect.
Unlike the factory’s classic multicolored production, this lot stands out for a bold and modern bi-chromatic color choice: the matte black background of the tray highlights the sculptural forms of the fruit, finished with a refined white, glossy and satin glaze.
An exceptional piece that unites the great ceramic tradition of the Veneto district (Nove/Marostica) with an avant-garde aesthetic line, close to pop modernism and contemporary design.
Stamped on the bottom with the factory mark and hand-numbered, testimony to authenticity and the limited edition production typical of the artisanal workshop.
Excellent overall condition.
Light signs of time and wear clearly visible in the photos.
Photos are an integral part of the lot description.
Shipped insured and trackable.
