This Italian ceramic vase from the 1960s stands out for its slender cylindrical silhouette, slightly tapered neck, and flat base. The surface is finished in a cool, pastel mint glaze featuring subtle tonal transitions and a softly mottled character.

The proportions are classic for mid-century modern design, with a height significantly exceeding the diameter for a harmonious and balanced effect. There is no information regarding the designer or manufacturer, but the form and details are typical of 1960s Italian craftsmanship.

The mint glaze conjures images of slow Mediterranean afternoons, with light gliding softly over the ceramic.
