He was born in Athens in 1937 to a father of Greek-Italian descent and an Austrian mother. His career began in 1960 after studying design at the Academy of Applied Arts in Vienna. He initially worked in furniture design in Siena, Italy, before moving to Germany in 1962 to design decorative glassware and three very successful pottery lines for Steuler: "Zyklon", "Facette", and "Continua". Zalloni passed away in 2012. About Steuler: The company was founded by Georg Steuler in Höhr-Grenzhausen in 1917. Steuler reached its artistic peak in the 60s and 70s and became particularly known for the series by Cari Zalloni. Most Steuler vases are of above-average quality. On the base, you can read a raised ST monogram. Until 1966, Steuler was based in Höhr-Grenzhausen. From 1994 to 1996, ceramics were produced by the company Tonart Ververs, but it ceased to exist in 1996. *** Careful shipping or hand delivery possible in Paris 20th.
