With etched detailing and a captivating color palette of blue, orange, yellow, ivory, and gold, this bowl embodies Londi's masterful approach to ceramics. Standing 6" tall and measuring 7" at its widest point, the piece features delicate, organic forms with a sense of movement, reflective of the soft, fluid aesthetic that characterizes the Seta series.
Londi’s innovative use of glazes and textures gives the bowl a lustrous, almost ethereal quality, with a finish reminiscent of draped fabric or flowing water. The muted, subtle hues create a harmonious balance of color that enhances the piece's luxurious feel. As part of Londi's work at Bitossi, where he was the artistic director, this bowl is a prime example of mid-century modern Italian craftsmanship, combining traditional techniques with a modern sensibility that continues to influence ceramic design today.
