Beautiful decorative wall plaque in Italian majolica from Vietri sul Mare, handcrafted and hand-painted, vintage from the 1950s-1970s. It depicts a large anthropomorphic sun with an expressive face, in luminous shades of yellow and orange with black details, typical of traditional Amalfi Coast production. Handwritten inscription on the reverse: "Decorato a mano Vietri" (Hand-painted in Vietri).
Diameter 32cm, thickness 3cm. No hook or back attachment; suitable mounting hardware will be required. In very good overall condition, however, there are three small flaws in the original firing glaze and an old dent on the back edge that caused a double surface crack, visible on the reverse and slightly visible on the side, without affecting the overall strength. A few fine, natural glaze cracks are also present, very discreet. Weight approximately 2 kg.
