A 1930s Art Deco Futurist Italian Movement Ceramic Box

About the Item

The 1930s Art Deco Futurist Italian Movement Ceramic Box is a beautifully crafted, decorative, and functional object. Its blend of geometric design, symbolic figurine, and quality materials exemplifies the innovative spirit of the era. This piece not only serves as a practical storage solution but also as a striking decorative item, showcasing the elegance and artistic flair of 1930s Italian craftsmanship. The Italian Futurist movement, which celebrated modernity, speed, and technology, is evident in the dynamic design of the piece. The sense of movement and energy is captured in the form and decoration. A notable feature is the elephant figurine adorning the lid. The elephant is depicted with its trunk raised, a symbol of good luck and prosperity. The figurine is crafted with attention to detail, showcasing a realistic yet stylized form. The box features a subdued, earthy color palette with shades of brown, beige, and cream. The gradient and shading techniques enhance the three-dimensional effect and give depth to the piece. It's in original good conditions.
