Mid-Century studio pottery created by artist Aldo Londi for Bitossi Italy. This beautiful vase was part of Londi's collectible Rimini Blue Line. It features the iconic Bitossi patten and the most gorgeous blue and turquoise colors.
Aldo Londi was an Italian artist, who started his career in ceramics when he was only 11 years old. In the 1950s, Londi was made Art Director of the famous Bitossi family ceramics studio in Montelupo. It was for Bitossi that he designed his most famous and collectible line of pottery, Rimini Blu. Rimini Blu was named after the major road junction that connects Central and Northern Italy as well as the stunning glaze combination used for the line, combining layers of blue and turquoise. This line was widely distributed in the United States by Raymor, who was the most influential importer of modern decorative arts in the Mid-Century.
