About the Item
1971 Organic Modern Ceramic Centerpiece by Arnaldo Miniati
Presenting a rare and captivating vintage ceramic centerpiece by the esteemed Italian artist, Arnaldo Miniati (1909-1979). This piece, dated 1971, is a magnificent example of Organic Modernism, blending a raw, natural aesthetic with a sophisticated artistic vision.
The centerpiece features a striking, textured surface with a metallic, iridescent glaze that shifts from deep, stormy blues and grays to shimmering gold and bronze tones. The rich, volcanic-like glaze and organic, asymmetrical shape evoke a sense of elemental beauty and a connection to the earth, a hallmark of Miniati's work.
The back is a testament to its provenance, featuring a handwritten note that reads: "Fatto per il Lanificio Marisa La Briglia Prato A. Miniati 1971." This inscription indicates that the piece was commissioned for the "Lanificio Marisa," a woolen mill in La Briglia, Prato—a significant detail that adds to its historical value and uniqueness.
This centerpiece is in excellent vintage condition, a true collector's item for those who appreciate Italian mid-century ceramics and the Organic Modernist movement. It makes a powerful statement on its own or as part of a curated collection.
