Description
A large 8″ Bitossi Italian mid century art pottery round dish/bowl/ashtray.
Designed by Aldo Londi in the 1960s or so, this is the typical Rimini Blu glaze, with seven stylised incised flower or fleur de lis motifs in blue and green glazes to the flat centre. It’s a harder to find un-named decor which was probably only produced for the Scandinavian market.
Circa 1960s to 1970s vintage.
20.8cm diameter x 5cm tall…. a good sized cylindrical bowl or plant pot holder.
800g.
Please see all photos for condition – shown from all angles.
Generally it’s very good and displays well with no cracks or big chips.
There are eight small flakes/dots of missing blue glaze, which is typical for the glaze and the clay.
An unusual unsigned large mid century bowl.
