Petucco & Tolio - Ewer - Height: 38 cm - Ceramic - Primitive and brutalist

Splendid and imposing vintage ceramic art carafe/jar, finely crafted and hand-decorated by the renowned Petucco & Tolio manufactory of Nove (Vicenza), one of Italy's most important ceramic centers. The piece stands out for its exceptional design inspired by modernist and primitive aesthetics, which strongly evoke the style of the famous atelier ceramics of the mid-20th century (with clear stylistic references to contemporaneous Picasso-like works). The slender, elegant body, equipped with a long loop handle, is entirely hand-painted in a vibrant cobalt blue on a gray-beige earthen background with a pleasantly textural, rustic feel. The central decoration depicts a suggestive stylized female figure, enriched with geometric graphic motifs, dots, and geometric color fields that give the piece a strong expressive and sculptural personality. Decorative details along the upper edge and the base complete the characterization of this extraordinary collectible piece. Production label present and clearly visible. Excellent conservation condition and quality. Slight signs of time and wear clearly visible in the photos. Photos as an integral part of the lot description. Insured and traceable shipping.

Estimate:$165.35
