Bitossi Figura Gallina Argen. Riedizion
The Figura Gallina Argento is a sculptural ceramic hen originally designed by Aldo Londi in 1963. Cast in red clay using a mould, the form is stylised yet recognisable, with a rounded body and simplified features. Its surface is finished with a lustrous silver glaze, applied in a third firing to achieve a reflective metallic sheen. This combination of traditional material and modern finish exemplifies Londi’s ability to blend artisanal technique with contemporary aesthetics.
Reissued in 2008 as part of the Riedizioni Archivio Storico collection, this edition is limited to 149 pieces. Each figure is handmade in Montelupo Fiorentino, Italy, and marked with its original inventory number and the historic “Cav. G. Bitossi & Figli” name at the base.
