A classic ceramic vase designed by Aldo Londi for Bitossi, Italy, from the celebrated Rimini Blu series. One of the most iconic designs of the Italian mid-century modern movement, this vase beautifully showcases Aldo Londi's mastery of colour, texture, and form. Its simple, balanced silhouette is enriched by the distinctive Rimini Blu glaze, featuring vibrant shades of deep blue contrasted with warm chocolate brown accents. Intricately impressed geometric motifs wrap around the surface, creating a rich tactile quality that has become synonymous with Bitossi's most collectible designs. The remarkable glazing, with its depth of colour and subtle tonal variations, gives the vase a sculptural presence, making it equally striking as a functional vessel or as a standalone decorative object. Its timeless aesthetic complements interiors ranging from mid-century modern and Scandinavian to contemporary spaces. Handcrafted in Italy, the vase exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic innovation that established Bitossi as one of the foremost names in post-war Italian ceramics. Height: 20 cm. Diameter: 15 cm. A highly collectible and enduring example of Italian modernist design. It is in very good condition. No chips or cracks. The base has a slight irregularity from the original production, felt tips have been added.
