Item description:
Delightful glazed earthenware teapot, slip-cast ceramic (ceramic with added kaolin, also known as soft porcelain), entirely hand-decorated with an airbrush with Art Deco-style floral decorations, made and signed under the base by the Turin-based manufacturer "Preciosa," dating back to around 1930. Good patina, especially under the base, and beautiful decoration of the highest quality, each flower slightly different from the other, all done by hand by the decorator. A real gem for art lovers and collectors.
