About the Item

This elegant lidded box by Tomaso Barbi showcases his signature blend of sculptural form and refined decorative detail. The square box is crafted in ceramic, finished with a striking red and gray marbleized glaze, accented by fine gilded highlights along the edges. The smooth ivory-toned borders frame the richly patterned surfaces, creating a bold contrast that enhances its modern-luxury aesthetic. The piece opens to reveal a spacious interior, making it both decorative and functional—perfect for use as a jewelry or trinket box. Characteristic of Barbi’s design work from the mid-to-late 20th century, this object embodies his artistic approach that bridges Italian modernism and decorative opulence, often drawing inspiration from natural forms and refined finishes.
