Made by the famous Giuseppe Mazzotti factory, Albisola, in futurist style, signed under the base "MGA" and with catalog number. Datable to the first decades of the 1900s. Consider that very often Diulgheroff signed his ceramic works only with the manufacturer's initials, without adding his name. The proposed object, although small in size, is of the highest artistic quality and rare beauty, made with artistic processing techniques used only for the most important and valuable Futurist ceramics. The patina is also excellent, especially under the base.

The MGA factory was founded in 1903 by the ceramist Giuseppe Mazzotti. This piece has an attribution mark,
