Toni Moretto - Sculpture, Lady at piano - 15 cm - Ceramic, Glaze

In perfect condition. • Active period: The Italian studio Lo Scricciolo was founded in 1958 by Toni Moretto and his partners, and permanently closed its doors in 1993. • Heyday: The popular series of satirical figurines depicting musicians, professors, and other professions reached its peak in the 1960s and 1970s. Your figurine is certainly from this mid-century heyday. Since each figurine was made and painted entirely by hand from white clay at the time, it is a unique remnant of Italian studio pottery from the early 1970s. These are fantastic details that directly confirm and enhance the figurine’s authenticity and value: • Model number 1029: This is the official model or catalog number the Lo Scricciolo studio assigned to this specific design of the pianist. It proves that this is a design produced in a series (but finished entirely by hand). • The capital letter S: This stands for the name of the studio itself: Scricciolo. • The paper sticker “Lo Scricciolo ITALY”: This is the ultimate proof of authenticity. Many of these foil paper stickers have not survived the passage of time (or cleaning). The fact that this sticker is still perfectly intact is a huge plus for collectors.
