1960s Brutalist Hand-Crafted Copper Vases by Angelo Bragalini

About the Item

These Copper Vases by Angelo Bragalini represent a fusion of artistic expression and material exploration characteristic of the mid-century period. They stand as timeless examples of the enduring appeal of Brutalist design and the craftsmanship of skilled artisans like Angelo Bragalini he was a notable artisan known for his mastery of metalwork and his contributions to the Brutalist movement. Brutalism in art and design emphasizes raw materials, rugged textures, and bold forms. These copper vases embody these principles through their hand-crafted construction and hammered finish, which create a distinctive aesthetic characterized by rough yet expressive surfaces. Each vase is a unique piece, reflecting the individuality of the artisan's handiwork. The process of hand-hammering copper imbues the vases with a sense of authenticity and craftsmanship, highlighting the material's malleability and inherent beauty. The Brutalist style, popularized in the mid-20th century with designs that celebrate the inherent qualities of the materials used, the hammered copper surfaces create visual interest through their texture and play of light, while the organic shapes evoke a sense of natural fluidity and movement. Their rugged beauty and sculptural presence make them compelling decorative objects that add character and depth to any interior space. They are in good conditions overall and signed on the bottom, the height of the small one is 24 cm.
