This remarkable Art Deco metaphysical vase, created by renowned Italian ceramic artist Dante Baldelli for Deruta in 1935, is a rare and highly collectible piece of Italian ceramic art. The vase features a striking black glaze with silver bands on two sides, capturing the refined elegance of 1930s Liberty style. An additional silver ring encircles the base, further enhancing its sophisticated design. On the front, two red giraffes are exquisitely sculpted (not simply painted) within a carved recess, resembling a grotto — a masterful touch that showcases Baldelli’s unique artistic vision.

 

In excellent condition, this vase exemplifies the finest craftsmanship of early 20th-century Italy. Other pieces from the same series are part of the Deruta Museum collection, highlighting its historical and cultural significance. This rare and extraordinary piece is a valuable addition to any serious collection of Italian Art Deco ceramics.
