We are thrilled to offer for sale this exceptionally rare and sought-after piece of Mid-Century Italian design - a stunningly large "Rimini Blu" ceramic horse sculpture by Aldo Londi for Bitossi. This piece is a true showstopper, accentuating the most vibrant hues of blues and greens characteristic of the "Rimini Blu" series.
This magnificent horse, measuring an impressive 15.55" high, 16.5" wide, and 6.7" deep, is the largest size available in the series, making it an even more special find. With its compelling presence and beautifully stylized form, it is bound to be the centerpiece of any room or collection.
Designed and manufactured in Italy in the 1960s, this ceramic horse is a true embodiment of Aldo Londi's genius and Bitossi's high-quality craftsmanship. The piece's striking geometric patterns and unique textured surface, inspired by Etruscan artifacts, are testaments to the timeless appeal of Londi's designs.
The sculpture is in excellent condition, testament to its age. The vibrant blues and greens are as luminous today as when first crafted, and there are no visible chips, cracks, or restorations. Please note that any vintage item will have minor signs of wear, consistent with their age and use. These do not detract from the overall appearance but add to the charm and character of this remarkable piece.
