This vintage Bitossi by Aldo Londi cinese decor for Rosenthal Netter showcases the artistic craftsmanship that has come to define Italian ceramics from the mid-20th century. This exquisite lidded pagoda jar, hand-produced in Flavia Montelupo, Italy, during the 1960s, stands as a testament to the era's innovation and aesthetic elegance.
Holding this piece, one is immediately struck by its stunning visual impact. The lapis lazuli blue and mottled aqua green glazing evoke a sense of antiquity, as if this jar has been unearthed from an ancient shipwreck or carefully extracted from an archaeological dig. The textured glaze, reminiscent of coral and seaweed, adds an organic and almost mythical quality to the jar.
The jar's base is meticulously crafted to emulate a small pedestal adorned with brass-like decoration. This thoughtful design element not only adds to the jar's visual appeal but also reflects the intricate attention to detail characteristic of Aldo Londi's work.
Marked with the distinctive Bitossi handwritten number "52/6 Italy," this piece bears the hallmark of authenticity and heritage. It is more than just a decorative object; it is a piece of history, embodying the rich tradition of Italian ceramic art and the innovative spirit of the 1960s. This lidded jar is a captivating addition to any collection, offering a tangible connection to the past and a timeless elegance that transcends generations.
