Rimini Blu ceramic mug vase by Aldo Londi for Bitossi Italy 1970

Small mug-shaped vase from the famous Rimini Blu series, designed by Italian designer Aldo Londi for Bitossi in the 1970s. Made of glazed ceramic, this model is distinguished by its bright blue enamel relief decoration, enriched with small shields representing stylized birds.
