Terracotta invetriata policroma

The Monza table service, or also called Margherita because of the decoration on the plates that simulates the flower's corollas, was exhibited by Andlovlitz at the Second Monza Biennial in 1925. The artist, who in his role as art director of the Società Ceramica Italiana in Laveno developed, like Gio Ponti with Richard Ginori, a fruitful collaboration between designer and ceramic industry, approached the iconographic and stylistic models of the Wiener Werkstätten in this era. In fact, the accompanying elements of this service are connoted, in line with one of the main expressive trends of the Deco style, by a neo-eighteenth-century taste, characterized by stylized and ironic decorative motifs. Glazed and painted earthenware table service with a decoration of flowering figures and corollas.
