Antique Vietri Vase with Hand Painted Flower
A charmingly hand painted ceramic vase with two undulating handles and a fluted spout. The unique piece originates from Vietri sul Mare- a small town on the Amalfi coast known for its age old ceramic craft and tradition. The beautifully poetic hand painted flower with stripes across the bottom of the vase comes in shades of blue and black offset by the ivory glaze. The vase features two wonderfully detailed double handles and fluted spout dipped in turquoise - typical of ceramics from Vietri. This hand thrown piece with its elegant form was most likely used for ceremonies or to hold holy water, as vases with fluted openings were usually created for this purpose. Today the ‘vasetto’ would make a lovely vase for fresh or dried flowers. Create an impactful decorative display with the similar ceramic vessels as seen in the images.
Found in Ostuni
the charming hilltop town of the valle d’Itria known as la città bianca (or ‘white city’).
Dimensions: H20cm x W19cm x D13cm
These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
