AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid pair of footed, chalice-/bell-shaped porcelain vases from the series designed by Gio Ponti for Richard Ginori in the 1920s, featuring the celebrated airy, atmospheric decorations (airplanes and hot-air balloons among the clouds). From a private collection and practically like new, with no scratches or chips whatsoever.
​The marks on the base clearly bear the wording “Reissue from the GIO PONTI Collection.” Produced by Richard Ginori (Manifattura di Doccia) in the second half of the 20th century, these are period numbered reissues (e.g., No. 195 and No. 360), not original pieces from the 1920s, but they still hold high value in the collecting world.
