Italian Modernist Vase c1970s 40 cm (D0562)
A tall and striking Italian modernist vase dating to the 1970s, featuring a bold architectural silhouette and a vivid multi‑tone glaze. The exterior transitions from deep red to midnight blue and back again, separated by a fine green band, while the interior is finished in a contrasting turquoise glaze — a hallmark of Italian ceramic design of the era.
The form, glaze style, and construction are consistent with the work of Sicart and related Tuscan ateliers producing export ceramics during the 1960s–1980s. The underside carries a simple “Made Italy” mark, typical of factory production intended for international distribution.
There is some age‑related crazing, and a small glaze bubble on the rim (not a chip), noted for accuracy.
A tall, sculptural, and highly decorative example of late‑20th‑century Italian ceramic design.
