Description: MEASURES:Height: 7,5 inch ; Width: 6 inch ; Depth: 3,9 inch ; Weight: 2 lbsCONDITIONS:Excellent general conditions, some small chips and a little barely visible crack on the mouth of the vase, see all the photos. Item description:Wonderful majolica terracotta vase handmade on a lathe by Ivos Pacetti for the Alba Docilia factory, in the shape of a rocket in full futurist style, decorated entirely by hand, and signed under the base with "A D", the famous brand of the Ligurian manufacture of Alba Docilia. Useful information for the evaluation of the object: Considered one of the most important ceramists of Albisola, Ivos Pacetti has won numerous artistic awards and has been the protagonist of many exhibitions and exhibitions, also boasting numerous auction results. Pacetti expressed himself best in the Futurist style and his Futurist ceramics have received estimates and have been sold at auction at very, very high prices with peaks of 6,000-7,000 euros. Also in the photos just below this description you will find some of the numerous auction results present for Ivos Pacetti.Final thoughts on the subject:Particularly valuable this vase. To note: the quality of the enamels, which are extremely compact, being the majolica vase, the extremely particular shape of the vase and the difficulty of making the concentric grooves, all made while the vase rotate on the lathe, but really difficult to make all at the same distance from each other and all perfectly parallel.Information on artist and/or manufacturer:In 1919, Adolfo Rossello from Albis, opened an artisan ceramic factory called "Alba Docilia", the ancient Roman name of Albisola. The factory, managed by Francesco Adolfo Rossello, remains active until 13 December 1982 and has won several artistic prizes and has participated in various art exhibitions including the famous "II Biennale di Monza" in 1925. Among the ceramists who collaborate with the company between the first and the second postwar period appear, among others: Virio da Savona, Guglielmo Bozzano, Romeo Bevilacqua, Cerruti, Carlo Frumento, Benedetto Gaggero, Ida Milani, Amleto Modolo and Ivos Pacetti. This vase, in our opinion, can be attributed precisely to the latter. Ivos Pacino Pacetti was born in Figline di Prato on 2 December 1901 and died in Albisola in 1970. In 1924 he moved to the "Alba Docilia" ceramic factory, proving to be one of the best architects of the rebirth of the Ligurian ceramic tradition and imposing his artistic personality in all the new Albisolese manufactures. In the last photos some historical notes of the Alba Docilia manufacture and biographical notes of Ivos Pacetti.
