Italian modernist apple (mela) form enamel on copper dish handmade by studio Laurana, which was founded by Franco Bastianelli (ca. 1950s, Italy).
Unique design with rich colors and patterns depicting an abstraction of an apple's interior.
Nice contrast of modernist attributes with Brutalist and crude characteristics - the purposeful asymmetry of the piece, involving hand-forming/bending one of the edges to better resemble an apple's shape adds to the piece's uniqueness.
Good, vintage condition with moderate age-commensurate crazing present; no enamel losses.
Signed Laurana and retains the label indicating "Rame d'Arte Lavorazione a Mano" or "copper art processing/manufacturing by hand."
H: 2.38" x L: 7.25" x D: 7.63"
