Bitossi Gatto Tigrato Bianco E Nero
The Gatto Tigrato Bianco e Nero is a stylised ceramic cat sculpture originally designed by Aldo Londi in 1966–67. Cast in white clay, the form is elongated and low, with simplified features and a gently arched back. Its surface is decorated using the wax-resist technique, with black tiger-like stripes over a white glaze. This playful yet graphic design is part of Londi’s Safari series, which reimagined animal forms through a modernist lens. The piece reflects his ability to blend whimsy with formal clarity, making it both decorative and sculptural.
Reissued in 2019 as part of the Riedizioni Archivio Storico collection, this edition is limited to 399 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.
