Description: MEASURES:Height: 8,07 inch; Large: 7,28 inch; Depth: 3,15 inch; Weight: 1,76 lbsCONDITIONS:Very good general conditions. Item description:Wonderful wall vase, planter, in majolica, ceramic, modeled by hand on a lathe, subsequently decorated by hand, then glazed with third fire firing, signed on the back by the artist Vincenzo Solimene and with place of production, "Italy", datable in the first half of the 20th century.Useful information for the evaluation of the object:In the last photos we have put some auction prices of the ceramics of the Cas founded by Vincenzo Solimene and the photo in particular of two wall vases, therefore very similar to ours, quoted 300-400 euros way back in 2010, by the Roman auction house Babbuino, famous for its low prices with the aim of attracting potential buyers. Furthermore, in our opinion the decorations on our planter are much more beautiful and are decorations often created by famous German artists in Vietri, such as Kowaliska, Dolker or Studeman, who collaborated with C.A.S. and to whom the paternity of this planter could be attributed.Final thoughts on the subject:Note the quality of the majolica, with an extremely compact glaze that is very hard to the touch and the particular shape of the vase, a wall planter modeled in the shape of a Roman amphora, perfectly cut in half, but entirely handmade on a lathe. Beautiful and very evident patina especially on the back.Information on artist and/or manufacturer:Vincenzo Solimene, known as "u'cupaiuolo" (the woodturner), is the progenitor of one of the most important families of Faenzari in Vietri. Born in Vietri in 1876, he worked from a very young age as an apprentice at the "Amabile" factory and then, as a potter, at the "I.C.A.M." ceramic factory. owned by Vincenzo Pinto. Having gained experience, he started his own business and began a piecework production of pottery and pottery made on the wheel. In 1937, assisted by some of his children, he founded the factory for the production of artistic ceramics "C.A.S." (Ceramiche Artistiche Solimene), died in Vietri in 1958. The Solimene family is considered one of the families that most influenced the ceramic renewal of Vietri. In the last photos there are historical information on the CAS manufacturing for those who want to find out more.
