A vintage Italian Mid-Century Modern handmade ceramic footed cigar ash receiver in the vibrant signature blue of Aldo Londi's iconic art pottery collection Rimini Blu, designed in 1959 for Bitossi Ceramiche and imported by Raymor in the 1960s. Can also be used as a videpoche or catchall tray. The deep blue glaze varies in turquoise shades and undertones and has a beautiful sheen. The hand-carved patterns of lines, dots, triangles and Xs produce a Brutalist aesthetic that blends very well with Scandinavian and Danish modern design. The whole is finished in a gorgeous, high quality glaze.
Bitossi (or Manifattura Cavaliere Bitossi e Figlia) was founded by Guido Bitossi in Florence, Italy in 1921 and is still operational today. The Bitossi Foundation released the biography of the master Aldo Londi and presented a show dedicated to him, titled “Aldo Londi, a 20th century ceramist.”
