Tacchini Italia, Aurum, Aqua Regis, Venus

The Aqua Regis amphora takes its name from the famous liquid named by alchemists for its ability to dissolve gold. Thrown on a potter‘s wheel and made of engobed semi-refractory, the amphora is a rounded structure with a single, large lateral handle and ample footed base.

The name for the tall Aurum vase comes from the Latin word for gold, the metal that represents purity, worth and loyalty.

Named Venus in honor of the planet long associated with beauty and harmonious shapes, the vase‘s rounded contours celebrate femininity and the anatomical sinuousness of classical sculptures.
