This ceramic vase from the Santucci workshop in Deruta is a testament to Italian craftsmanship from the 1960s, where tradition meets modernist imagination. Standing 30 cm tall and 16 cm wide, it is hand-formed in a warm, light terracotta brown, with subtle horizontal striations that emphasize its artisanal origins. The decoration features a graphic black line motif depicting a stylized fish or bird—an approach characteristic of mid-century modern aesthetics. Accentuating the body are thickly applied enamel dots in vivid red, yellow, and blue, each encircled by small white dots for a lively, multicolored effect. The vase is completed by a wide, undulating rim with a hand-painted black edge and delicate white dots, plus two elegantly curved handles. The surface shifts from matte to satin, with glossy highlights where enamel is applied. The ceramic is smooth, with visible brushwork and small imperfections that affirm its handmade nature. Minor chips and wear are visible on the base and rim, consistent with age and use. There are no visible signs of restoration; the overall condition is good, and the patina with minor losses attests to its authenticity. This vase tells the story of Italian design
