About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
The original "Polivaso" vase, designed in the 1950s by Antonia Campi for the Società Ceramica Italiana di Laveno (SCI), is one of the most recognizable examples of 20th-century Italian ceramic design.
Made of bright orange glazed ceramic, it features a distinctive sculptural structure composed of multiple necks of varying heights. The slender, organic shape fully reflects the experimental research pursued by Antonia Campi during the 1950s, a particularly significant period in the revival of Italian ceramics.
The Polivaso vase can be used as a vase for small flowers and simple compositions, but it also retains a strong aesthetic autonomy as a decorative sculpture. Today, it is a sought-after object among collectors and enthusiasts of Italian design, modern antiques, and designer ceramics.
Perfect for modernist, mid-century, or eclectic settings, it represents a significant testament to post-World War II Italian design.
