This delicate porcelain candy box depicts the famous couple Pierrot and Columbine, emblematic figures of the Commedia dell’arte, very popular in decorative arts during the interwar period.
The tender scene is rendered in an elegant black and white palette, typical of the Art Deco style. The stylized lines of the costumes and the finely painted faces lend a great deal of softness and poetry to the piece.
The lid, formed by the sculpted group, fits perfectly onto the base. A decorative piece as charming as it is useful, ideal for a display cabinet, a dressing table, or a shelf.
