Retro Ceramics - Italian - Bitossi/Raymor Pottery/Ceramics (2 items)
This section is devoted to the truly fabulous and unique studio ceramics that were made in Italy post 1950 and designed by some legendary names like Aldo Londi and Piero Fornasetti amongst others. Many items originally produced as tourist ware they have now become the epitome of retro chic - from the Rimini Blu range with it's trademark rough surface textures and repeating impressed designs on pots, plates, birds and animals to the high camp kitsch of fifties jugs and pots painted and embellished with high gloss glazes, textures and designs.

They sit brilliantly amongst other types of studio pottery from the same period, in particular the Fantoni/Gambone glazed and scraffito high gloss glazed items as well as the unique and highly distinctive ceramics being manufactured in West Germany at the same time. If displayed all together they look truly iconic and are, we believe, a collecting tip for the future - we intend to bring you as many of the funkiest pieces of Italian studio pottery and ceramics as we are able to - check back often for new additions.

code: BITOSSIBOTTLE
1960s Bitossi (Italy) Rimini Blu Large Bottle Vase
£60.00

The Italian company Bitossi have produced some fabulous art pottery during the last 50 years and here is a great example.  A large bottle vase circa 1960s in the characteristic Bitossi clay and glazes - dark brown bands interspersed with an impressed repeating pattern in the Rimini Blu colour.  Marked to the base with a handwritten 'B68/25 Italy' in black - the 'B68' we think is either the shape number or possibly the year of production and the '/25' relates to the size (this piece is 25cm tall).  An impressive addition to any retro ceramics collection.  Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups.

SIZE:   Height 10in/25cm   Weight 1270g

CONDITION:  Lovely original condition - no chips or cracks, just a small patch of glaze loss to the rim in one place.
