AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Very beautiful Vallauris ceramic vase signed 'Santi' from the 1960s.

Its distinctive feature is that it presents a section with a mosaic-like enamel decoration (relief Mediterranean design) similar to cloisonné enamels, and a more raw part with a dark gray volcanic texture, reminiscent of the 'Fat lava' style.

Its height is 33 cm, with a maximum width of 11 cm (at the level of the belly), and it weighs approximately 787 g.

In good condition. Be aware, as you can see in the last three photos, does the collar seem naturally beveled or not? Is this the intended style or previous damage? I don't know, so there is no reserve price! In any case, this does not detract from the charm of this object. Also, there are small bubbles in the 'coating' that have burst, which are related to the texture of the vase, so they are normal. See all the photos; they are an integral part of the description.

Fast and careful shipping with worldwide tracking.
