Sculptural vase Pollo – Tapio Wirkkala for Rosenthal – 1973

Sculptural vase Pollo – Tapio Wirkkala for Rosenthal – 1973. A small sculpture that seems to come to life. Created in 1973 by Finnish designer Tapio Wirkkala for Rosenthal studio-linie, this remarkable small white porcelain vase is named "Pollo". Its asymmetrical and delicately rounded silhouette evokes a bird with an upright neck. Around its opening, fine relief porcelain beads form concentric circles, resembling precious plumage. The matte white surface reveals the softness of its curves and creates a subtle play of shadow and light. But its charm also lies in its unique balance: when placed down, its rounded base allows it to sway slightly before finding its resting position. An almost living movement that transforms this simple object into a true poetic sculpture.
