Description
A fabulous hand painted 1950s or 1960s basket by Fratelli Fanciullacci, Italy.
Pottery/ceramic with a matte white textured (splattered/bobbled) base glaze with curvy fine black lines with coloured oval infills. The trim is a duck egg green and the oval shapes are yellow, red, black, brown. It’s oval, footed, and with a curly handle to each end.
Signed on base ‘Italy 7669’.
Each piece was hand-painted so it is unique, and any drips, skips and flaws are part of the artistic appeal.
Excellent for the age and era with no chips or cracks.
Slightly dirty inside.
Please also see all photos.
Bowl is 11cm tall (12.5cm with handles) x 19.5cm long x 12cm deep – an oval bowl shape.
A classic bit of Italian retro kitsch!
