306 - Riccardo Gori (born in 1960)

Riccardo Gori (born in 1960) Table lamp Porcelain with crystallized enamel decoration Artist’s monogram on the reverse Date of creation: 2000 Without lampshade: H27 D18 cm Crystallized enamel is one of the most demanding techniques in ceramics: during a precisely controlled cooling process, crystals form in the enamel and blossom into star-shaped or floral patterns that are impossible to reproduce identically. Riccardo Gori applies this technique to porcelain, a medium whose whiteness makes the crystals stand out. This lamp base offers a domestic application of the technique: as the light illuminates the surface, it highlights the reflections and depth of the crystals. A piece signed with the artist’s monogram.
