Description: MEASURES:Height : 11,02 inch ; Diameter: 6,69 inch ; Weight 3,73 lbsCONDITIONS:Good general condition considering the age of the vase, several chips, very old, and various flaws on the enamel. Item description:Wonderful, large wine flask, vase similar to a large majolica bottle decorated in blue on a white background, classic Savonese decoration, made in the second half of the 17th century by the Guidobono family, specifically by Bartolomeo Guidobono, decoration with central fortress and surrounding landscape all in ultramarine blue on a white background. On the back there are the initials of the decorator "BG", Bartolomeo Guidobono.Useful information for the evaluation of the object:Bartolomeo Guidobono is an important artist from Savona, in the last photos, immediately below this description, we have placed the first four auction results present for the artist's paintings, with maximum peaks of over €216,000 excluding auction fees of 25- 30%, and some of his ceramics are listed at very high prices, with maximum peaks of €25,000-35,000 for two ceramic cake stands. Then we placed some plates taken from our book, "Ceramics of the Ligurian tradition" to show the similarity of the blue decorations with those on our flask, especially regarding the foliage of the trees made with single brushstrokes, leaf by leaf, and the fortress made with simple lines, very similar to the one on our vase. Then we put a photo of his signature, with his initials, "BG" identical to those on our flask. Finally, we put a photo of a plate exhibited at the ceramics museum of Savona, on the occasion of the exhibition of Bartolomeo Guidobono's ceramics, on 28 April 2022, testifying that in addition to being an important painter, the artist is also an important ceramist.Information on the artist and/or manufacturer:Bartolomeo Guidobono is the son of the founder of the factory Giovanni Antonio Guidobono. The Guidobono family is an important family of ceramists from the 1600s, operating in Savona between the 17th and 18th centuries. Once Bartolomeo Guidobono became a priest, he mostly created paintings, and is known above all for painting, but he also created rare ceramic works, following the style of the family of Savona ceramists from which he came. For those who want to delve deeper, we have put various biographical information on the artist in the photos below this description.ENTER OUR EBAY SHOP .PORCELAINS, CERAMICS, TERRACOTTE, BRONZE, PAINTINGS, FURNITURE, GLASS AND MUCH MORE AS, FOR EXAMPLE: OUR COMMERCIAL POLICYAware of operating in the eBay market, our prices are often lower than the real value of the object, as often documented in our descriptions, and also lower than the prices at which very similar objects are offered on other online art sales platforms and antiques.

For each object there may be multiple advertisements in different countries: USA, Italy, France, United Kingdom, etc. Any price differences are due only to changes in the exchange rate of the various currencies between when we made the advertisement and when you see it.
