Pressed mould in white fire-clay, Rimini Blu series. The décor is engraved by hand with different motifs stamp under a bright blue crystalline. All Bitossi ceramics are entirely handmade by our artisans at every stage of the production process.

Aldo Londi’s ceramics, designed throughout his career, are the result of diligent study that addresses constant experimentation with various materials, colors, and techniques. Londi channels creative impulses into meticulous stylistic and production research, as exemplified in the timeless Rimini Blu series, produced continuously since 1959. Since then, the surface texture, depicted by different motifs engraved by stencil, has consistently maintained the same graphic characteristics.

An ornament consisting of compact, intricate patterns creates a border. An assortment of non -concrete shapes rapidly follow one another, accented by swift brush strokes of tint that the artist applies beneath the blue. Following the firing process, the decoration creates a magical play of light that reflects in the sea. It’s not a coincidence that the series is named “Rimini Blu,” in reference to the celebrated resort on the Riviera Romagnola that enjoyed immense popularity in the 1950s.
