Italian Turquoise and Gold Floral Hand-Painted Ceramic Vase, 1960s

Italian Mid-Century Modern Ceramics

This striking Italian hand-painted ceramic vase from the 1960s showcases a vibrant turquoise glaze accented with an intricate gold floral motif around its midsection. Its tall, tapered silhouette and ribbed texture reflect the elegance and attention to detail that define mid-century Italian craftsmanship. A perfect blend of color, pattern, and proportion, this vase brings timeless sophistication to any interior.

Hand-painted Italian artistry
The piece demonstrates the refined techniques for which Italian ceramicists are celebrated. The floral band, hand-decorated in shimmering metallic gold, contrasts beautifully with the vivid turquoise body, creating a dynamic yet harmonious visual balance. This careful interplay between surface texture and color exemplifies Italy’s postwar design sensibility—bold, joyful, and expertly executed.

Mid-century design and decorative versatility
Elegant in form yet vibrant in character, the vase stands beautifully as a sculptural object or as part of a curated ceramic collection. It embodies the optimism of the 1960s design era, where craft met modernism, making it an ideal decorative accent for contemporary, vintage, or eclectic interiors.
