Fiammetta Fulchiati

Three charming storage jars, each with a unique and colorful design, immediately draw attention with their bold, surreal appearance. Although they are not from the Fornasetti brand, they are unmistakably inspired by the distinctive Fornasetti style, in which classical faces and playful, imaginative decorations come together.

In the 1950s, Italian artist Piero Fornasetti made a name for himself with his iconic series “Tema e Variazioni,” in which the face of opera singer Lina Cavalieri appeared in countless variations. These three ceramic storage jars hark back to that idea: the female face of Lina Cavalieri forms the central theme, while each jar tells its own story. Sometimes the portrait is surrounded by delicate flowers, other times by abstract patterns and colors. This creates an intriguing interplay between classical elegance and contemporary fantasy.

Each jar is adorned with lush flowers and cheerful tones that break through the stark black-and-white of the face. This contrast, the subtle, almost mysterious gaze of the woman combined with the playful use of color, is precisely what makes the Fornasetti style so beloved. Here, too, the viewer is invited to take a closer look and discover new details: a subtle butterfly, a graceful leaf, or an unexpected pop of color.

With a height of approximately 14.5 cm and a diameter of about 8.6 cm, these ceramic jars offer ample space for all kinds of items: candies, spices, jewelry, or other precious trinkets. The matching ceramic lids close tightly, keeping the contents neat and dust-free. At the same time, they are true eye-catchers in any interior. Whether placed in the kitchen, bathroom, or living room, their artistic appearance instantly adds a touch of luxury and creativity.

The magic of these storage jars lies in the combination of nostalgic portrait art and modern fantasy elements. While the original Fornasetti atelier in Milan was known for handcrafted objects and bold decorations, these ceramic jars offer a playful interpretation of that same philosophy: artistic forms, surprising details, and a nod to the classical beauty of the past. They invite you to dream, to let your imagination run free, and to enrich your interior with a unique artistic touch.

With these three ceramic storage jars, you not only bring order into your home, but also introduce a subtle reference to Italian design tradition. Perfect for anyone who enjoys a hint of extravagance and a touch of poetry in everyday life.

The jars are in new and unused condition.
