Beautiful, rare ceramic ampoule vase entirely decorated with airbrush and finished with metallic luster. Realized by the famous italian ceramist Alberto Mingotti Faenza school and signed under the base M.T. Forlì. The lustre of this beautiful vase is very similar to the works of the Bottega Gatti in Faenza, or pieces by Melandri, which it rivals in every way.
Useful information for the evaluation of the object :
In the last photos, immediately following those of the item, you can see some of the artist's auction results, with fairly high estimates for numerous ceramic sculptures and a single sculpture estimated at €1,700-2,000. Please note that most of the estimates are quite old, from 2003 to 2008, so these prices, adjusted for inflation, would undoubtedly be much higher today. Furthermore, please note that we are talking about starting prices, prices that may rise during the auction and to which a 25-30% buyer's premium must always be added.
