Striking mid‑century Italian sgraffito pottery ewer by Fratelli Fanciullacci for Elbee Imports, Italy, featuring a stylized prancing horse in low‑relief against a richly textured lava‑glaze ground. The body is finished in mottled white and deep turquoise with incised detailing, highlighted by hand‑applied gold accents that catch the light beautifully.
The underside is hand‑signed and numbered 30/50, indicating a limited production run for Elbee, a U.S. importer known for commissioning distinctive Fanciullacci designs in the 1950s–60s. A sculptural handle and flared neck give the ewer an elegant silhouette, making it an ideal focal point for a credenza, bookshelf, or mantel display.
Additionally, the ewer is sold with the brass display stand included, which provides a stable base and complements the warm gold accents in the glaze.
