Specialist Notes

In 1989, a few years after Venini was acquired by a new owner, Fulvio Bianconi was called in to design and create new models. With renewed enthusiasm he proposed several drawings including the Acquaiola. This collaboration, although episodic, was repeated in the early nineties. The object represents a seated female nude carrying on her head a black plate with a water container
