What distinguishes an ‘Italian’ vase from any other vase? For many, the vase is nothing more than a domestic, common object, yet it has such a symbolic charge that it has stimulated many masters of design to give it their own, original, even ecologically sustainable* interpretation, through the exploration of materials, forms and traditions. Page after page, 100 Vases of Italian Design accompanies the reader in identifying the distinctive features of the ‘Italian style of the vase’, looking back over the last hundred years of production, including the work of designers of the calibre of Galileo Chini, Fabio Novembre, Tobia and Carlo Scarpa, Ettore Sottsass, Enzo Mari and others.
