Mid-20th Century Italian Basalt Tazza

About the Item

This mid-20th century Italian basalt porcelain tazza is a refined study in classical elegance. With a wide, low bowl gracefully elevated on a turned foot, its proportions echo the timeless beauty of ancient Roman design. Two delicately applied handles extend from either side, adding both balance and a sculptural element to the form. The interior of the bowl is richly decorated in low relief, featuring mythological figures from classical Rome, their forms gracefully intertwined amidst olive trees, a nod to the enduring symbolism of peace and prosperity. At the center, a laurel wreath—a mark of victory and honor—anchors the composition with quiet grandeur. Crafted from basalt porcelain, its deep, matte black surface enhances the crisp detail of the relief, evoking the look and feel of ancient carved stone. A striking blend of history and artistry, this tazza makes an elegant statement in any collection of classical or neoclassical design.
