Product description
Magnificent and unique, this imposing vintage Italian handcrafted demijohn vase dates from the 1960s-1980s, in the style of period Italian majolica. It has a rounded, square bottle shape and a large cylindrical neck that narrows at the top. The white glazed ceramic is hand-decorated on the front with a superb, colorful scene of two birds with blue, green, yellow, turquoise, purple, and orange plumage in a lemon tree with leafy, flowering, and fruit-bearing branches. Signed “Urbau” in the lower right corner. The decoration, with its energy and vibrant palette, perfectly embodies the spirit of Romano Innocenti's creations: a work at the crossroads of traditional majolica and 1960s Italian modernism. Possibly from the workshop of a student or collaborator of Innocenti, or from a regional workshop inspired by his Florentine style, the style is remarkably similar.
33.5 cm in total height, approximately 20 cm at its widest point. In perfect condition, nothing noteworthy apart from a few very discreet natural cracks in the earthenware. Approximately 3-4 kg.
