ABOUT PRODUCTID 6108
The Sicas ceramic vase from Sesto Fiorentino exemplifies Italian 1950s design, crafted by the renowned Tuscan manufactory. Its form captivates with a sculptural silhouette: a bulbous central body flows seamlessly into a flared, star-shaped base and a wide, undulating rim. The surface is adorned with hand-painted horizontal stripes of varying thickness and intensity, rendered in cool white, soft green, and deep black. The glossy glaze lends a subtle opalescent sheen, enhancing visual depth. Both the base and the rim bear the same striped motif, and the interior is fully glazed. The overall aesthetic is mid-century modern, combining geometric clarity with a sense of movement. The vase is preserved in excellent vintage condition, free from visible damage, chips, or repairs. This shape echoes the voice of postwar Italian optimism: dynamic lines and the interplay of light beneath the lustrous glaze evoke an era when design embraced modernity. The rhythmic stripes—sometimes calm, sometimes bold—draw the eye around the form, as if telling a story of energy and lightness. The vase seems to invite the light to dance, reflecting it and casting subtle highlights across its surface, shifting gently throughout the day. The vase can be placed on a pale wood console or as a centerpiece on a table, where its geometric form will anchor the space. It pairs well against neutral walls or alongside other Italian ceramics from the era, creating a collector’s dialogue. It is
