About the Item

A stunning 1940 Italian white porcelain lidded pot finely decorated with Zodiac figures from classical antiquity in 24k "Oro Zecchino" by Arrigo Finzi. Gilt ceramic lid. Signed Finzi Oro Zecchino Made in Italy on underside of potiche and Hutschenreuther on underside of cover. Finzi often hand painted his designs on Hutschenreuther and Heinrich blanks. Arrigo Finzi was the only Italian silversmith to be selected to participate in the exhibition "Italy at work, her renaissance in design today", promoted by the CNA (Compagnia Nazionale Artigiana) and hosted by 12 important American museums from 1950-1952 to present the best of the decorative arts produced in Italy since the end of the war. For years now, his production has also extended to porcelain decorated in pure gold. In 1952 he opens a store of two floors in Via Manzoni 17 in Milan and in 1954 he creates Finzi Arte, with the collaboration of his daughter Olga Finzi Baldi in the field of high end and one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces. Arrigo Finzi died in Milan on January 6, 1973.
