Primates Mandrillus Vase are part, together with Primates Brazza Vase and Primates Kandti Vase, of the Primates Collection by Elena Salmistraro for Bosa, presented at Maison & Objet in 2017. 

Primates Collection in fine ceramic, designed to remind us of the delicate relationship between man and ape. The ape is the animal that best evokes man, in the shape of the body, expressions and movements.

This power of resemblance to man is what makes it fascinating and what inspired the creation of these vases, whose "soul" is enclosed in details and colored textures.

The Primati Collection expands to include the masks and the wonderful plates that can both be used to adorn our walls.

Dimension: L 25 x H 40 cm

BOSA

It was in 1976 that Italo Bosa started its own ceramic production following the ancient processing techniques for objects made entirely by hand, enhanced by a rich color palette, decorated with precious metals – gold, platinum, copper – and enamels with exclusive shades created by company. Precise techniques that are still today at the base of Bosa’s production and that give the objects uniqueness, quality and recognizability.The ceramic objects and furnishings created in the Bosa house, in addition to expressing all the knowledge of the craft, transmit that incessant experimentation of the possibilities of ceramics that has among its objectives the transformation of formal and functional habits into new interpretations, new fantastic functions and worlds, a mission that Italo Bosa has been able to transfer to his daughters Francesca and Daniela, to his wife and to all his collaborators.
