Gio Ponti for Ginori
Globular vase "Le mie terre"Gio Ponti for Richard Ginori, circa 1929, h. cm. 23 (slight chips)in majolica with a blue background, yellow-orange decoration with the Equator line in relief, depicting the five continentsMark: in black crown, Ginori Made in ItalySignature: in black Gio Ponti Numeral: in black 1179-374.EUralita label, BarcelonaBibl.: for an example like ours see L.Manna, Gio Ponti. Le maioliche, Milan, 2000, pp. 210-213, sch. 76.One of the decorations dearest to Gio Ponti, which he affectionately called "My lands", this motif will be used very often in the advertising pages of Domus. Initially intended for collectors, as well as the most important families, in reality the globe was designed differently from the one created: of captivating taste, it is one of the most produced ceramics even if the subject is now distant from the context of the production of the early Twenties.
