Place of origin: Italy
Elegant and poised, the Ambretta Dancer captures the refined sensibility of Italian Art Déco through the mastery of Sandro Vaccetti, created in collaboration with the Turin-based firm Essevi. Modeled in ceramic and finished with a lustrous glaze, the figure presents a stylized female dancer balanced gracefully on her legs, her body turned in a subtle contrapposto that accentuates the sculptural fluidity of the form. The expansive cloak, hand-painted with a rhythmic floral pattern in vivid tones of blue, yellow, pink, and green, introduces a decorative contrast to the smooth, pale surfaces of the skin, enhancing the sense of movement and theatricality.
Vaccetti’s attention to anatomy and gesture is complemented by the meticulous execution of the enamel, underscoring the artisanal precision characteristic of mid-20th-century Italian ceramic production. The underside bears the marks identifying the artist, manufacturer, and place of origin, confirming its provenance within Essevi’s distinguished oeuvre.
