BITOSSI CERAMICHE

Dimore 1 Vase In Blue

A 2016 collaboration between Bitossi Ceramiche and Dimorestudio's Emiliano Salci and Britt Moran has delved deep into the rich history of the Italian ceramics brand. The result, heavily influenced by Bitossi's archives that date to 1871, is a series of vases that blend ceramics with brass for a smooth mix of classic and contemporary. The oblong vase 'DIM-1' combines brass with teal-coloured ceramic for an abstract silhouette that serves as both a sculptural ornament or a vessel in which to hold anything from flowers to cutlery.

Since 1871 the Bitossi family has manufactured ceramics in Montelupo Fiorentino, where ceramicists have thrived since the 16th century. Today the production continues under the direction of fourth-generation family member, Cinzia Bitossi in collaboration with leading figures who contribute to create an identity for Bitossi Ceramiche as an example of Italian excellence. In collaboration with Dimore Studio, the Dimore 1 Vase is crafted from ceramic in a smooth finish, featuring teal-coloured ceramic, abstract silhouette and brass elements serving both as a sculptural ornament or functional vessel.
