About the Item

Set of Four Italian Mid-Century Leather-Backed Ceramic Dishes in the Style of Marcello Fantoni – Florence, circa 1950 A striking and collectible set of four Italian mid-century decorative dishes, crafted in Florence in the 1950s and executed in the style of celebrated ceramicist Marcello Fantoni. Each piece features hand-painted, stylized abstract motifs in vibrant colors, embodying the expressive spirit of Italian modern design. These unique ceramics are mounted on leather backs, adding warmth and texture while reflecting the refined craftsmanship associated with Florentine workshops of the period. The set includes a variety of sculptural forms: one oval bowl, one triangular bowl, and two square dishes—each with its own distinctive character. Versatile in function, these pieces can be used as vide-poche, trinket or jewelry dishes, change trays, or small decorative ashtrays. Equally compelling as display objects, they bring a sophisticated mid-century Italian aesthetic to any interior. Dimensions: * Square dishes: 4.5" x 5" * Oval dish: 4" x 6" * Triangular dish: 5" x 5" x 6" A rare and elegant collectible set—ideal for collectors of Italian ceramics or admirers of mid-century modern design.
