ABOUT PRODUCTID 35174
The modernist ceramic vase by Bertoncello Ceramiche, designed by Roberto Rigon in the 1960s, exemplifies Italian craftsmanship seeking harmony between utilitarian object and sculptural form. Its distinctive, flowing silhouette features a bulbous base, slender neck, and an organic, asymmetrical openwork hole, creating a dynamic whole. The primary hue is a warm ochre brown with subtle tonal transitions and marbling effects, contrasted by deeper brown accents around the rim. The glazed surface, with its slightly crackled texture, enhances the interplay of light and shadow, while the seamless, stable construction ensures secure placement. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with minimal signs of age and no damage or chips.
This object seems to narrate the story of Italian modernism—an era in which ceramics became a manifesto of new artistic expression. The vase might evoke the voice of the 1960s, when expressive yet pure lines converged in everyday objects. The sculptural, organic opening hints at creative freedom, while the shifting color and glossy glaze recall experiments with material and light. This is a piece that does not fade into the background, but rather engages with its surroundings, bringing a sense of discovery and contemplation of form.
The vase can be paired with minimalist light wood or
