The ceramic box of the Italian Futurist Movement of the 1930s is an excellently crafted, decorative and functional object. Its mix of geometric design, symbolic figurine and quality materials exemplifies the innovative spirit of the time. This piece is not only a practical storage solution, but also a striking decorative element that showcases the elegance and artistic flair of 1930s Italian craftsmanship.
The Italian Futurist movement, which celebrated modernity, speed and technology, is evident in the dynamic design of the piece. The sense of movement and energy is captured in the shape and decoration. A noteworthy feature is the elephant figurine that adorns the lid. The elephant is depicted with its trunk raised, a symbol of good luck and prosperity. The statuette is made with attention to detail and shows a realistic but stylised form.
The casket features a soft, earthy colour palette with shades of brown, beige and cream. Shading and shading techniques enhance the three-dimensional effect and give depth to the piece. It is in good original condition.
