Crafted in Italy and clearly marked “Made in Italy” to the underside, this sculptural ceramic piece displays excellent form, expressive detailing, and careful brushwork throughout.

The intertwined necks form the lid handle, a classic figural motif, while the tureen retains its original matching ladle—an important and increasingly rare accompaniment that enhances both its functionality and collectibility.

This piece serves equally well as a decorative object or as a statement serving piece, lending old-world charm to a dining table, sideboard, or china cabinet. Particularly well suited to European country, traditional, and grandmillennial interiors. See less
