This is a beautiful mid-century Italian vase with a lid by the famous designer Aldo Londi for Ceramiche Paoli in Montelupo Fiorentino Italy.
Best known for his distinct studio pottery designs for Bitossi, he also designed a few pieces for other ceramic workshops like Ceramiche Bruno Paoli from the same Italian village near Florence in Tuscany.
For this series - called Sahara - he used the intricate and rich patterns he was used to work with at Bitossi, but added some other colors to create a unique blend of earthy browns and vibrant orange, highlighted by intricate patterns that provide texture and depth.
Renowned for their high-quality craftsmanship, Bitossi's style is evident in this piece's meticulous detailing and elegant form.
