Lyrical Hand-Stamped Vintage 1960s Bitossi Compote Vase Designed by Aldo Londi

This vintage 1960s Bitossi compote vase, designed by Aldo Londi, is a stunning example of Italian mid-century ceramics, showcasing the deep cobalt hues and intricate textures that define Londi’s legendary Rimini Blu series. As the artistic director of Bitossi Ceramiche from the 1940s to the 1980s, Londi played a pivotal role in blending traditional Italian craftsmanship with modernist sensibilities.

The hand-stamped geometric motifs and rich, layered glaze technique reflect the centuries-old majolica tradition, reinterpreted through a distinctly mid-century lens. The compote’s sculptural pedestal form makes it an ideal statement piece, embodying the bold, tactile aesthetic that made Bitossi a favorite of collectors worldwide. Now part of the Lemieux Et Cie Vintage Collection, this rare find celebrates the enduring artistry of Italian ceramics and the visionary genius of Aldo Londi.
