ABOUT PRODUCTID 20554
This decorative porcelain shell from the 1970s is a hand-formed piece crafted in Italy, reflecting the spirit of mid-century modern and Hollywood Regency design. The organic, sculptural silhouette takes inspiration from natural sea shells and is made from high-quality porcelain or faience, finished with a pearlescent, high-gloss glaze. The surface is smooth, with a gently undulating texture that captures the natural ridges and contours of a shell, while the iridescent white glaze plays with light to create subtle rainbow reflections. The form is free from additional fittings or embellishments, allowing the pure lines and artisanal precision to remain in focus. This piece is both decorative and functional, suitable as a centerpiece, candy dish, or catchall. It is preserved in its original condition, with minor surface scratches consistent with age and gentle use.The shell evokes the atmosphere of Italian interiors from the 1970s, where luxury and ease converged in refined detail. The pearlescent glaze gently refracts the light, casting subtle iridescent hues reminiscent of Mediterranean beaches and cinematic salons of the era. In this decorative object, one hears the voice of Italian design: a sense of lightness, a touch of extravagance, and a deep appreciation for the organic forms of nature.The shell can be displayed in a living room on a dark wood console or a marble surface, where its iridescent finish will highlight the interplay of light in a mid-century or classic glamour setting. It may be paired with other white or glass decor items to emphasize its subtle character, or allowed to stand out against monochromatic walls. This piece will also suit eclectic arrangements, serving as an understated accent—whether as a purely decorative object or as a practical bowl for small items.
