A rare black bucchero ceramic vase, designed by Gio Ponti in collaboration with Carlo Alberto Rossi in the 1940s. The piece stands out for its sculptural and dynamic lines, with a pronounced arched handle and a smooth body with sinuous surfaces, typical of Ponti's formal research of the time.
No signature!
Bucchero, a material reminiscent of Etruscan tradition, is reinterpreted in a modern key with a glossy, compact finish that enhances the pure geometry and the interplay of solids and voids. The piece represents a perfect synthesis of craftsmanship and industrial design, combining the functionality of a vase with the aesthetic refinement of a domestic sculpture.
This piece is considered a rarity in the panorama of postwar Italian ceramics, testifying to the experimentation and artistic sensibility of Ponti and Rossi in the field of decorative arts.
