The Figura Uccello is a ceramic bird designed by Aldo Londi for the Rimini Blu collection. Its stylised form is perched on a slender black metal base, giving the piece a sense of lightness and balance. The surface is engraved with a dense pattern of abstract and geometric motifs, applied by stencil and highlighted by a vivid turquoise glaze. Subtle touches of green and cobalt, brushed beneath the surface, add depth and variation, creating a shimmering effect that shifts with the light, an echo of the sea that inspired the series.Each Uccello is handcrafted in Montelupo, Italy, using the same techniques developed by Londi in the 1950s. The decoration is applied while the clay is still soft, then glazed and fired to reveal the full richness of colour and texture. Mounted on its metal base, the piece stands as both sculpture and symbol of Italian ceramic heritage.
