1950's/60's Bitossi, Italy, Rosso Impressed Cylindrical Vase

Here is an extremely unusual, both in terms of colour and shape, red cylindrical Bitossi vase circa 1960.  This is a really nice piece of retro Italian glazed pottery decorated with an impressed repeating pattern typical of ceramics from this factory, more usually found in the Aldo Londi designed Rimini Blu colourway.  it is marked to the base very faintly with a hand-painted 'Italy' which can only just about be read.  This is a striking display piece and an impressive addition to any retro ceramics collection.  Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups.
