Rare Bambi Moneybox This is an Extreeeemly RARE Moneybox by Tarcisio Tosin Heres a bit about the Artist Tosin (1932-1990) In 1932 Tarcisio Tosin opened his studio in Venice and named it La Freccia de Tarcisio Tosin. (The Arrow of Tarcisio Tosin) He chose the arrow as his trademark because to him it represented the ability to “fly through space and time in order to hit the target and therefore contained all the elements expressed by the ‘Futurisimo’ movement”. The arrow summed up Tosin’s artistic style of free flowing modern design that was termed by Italians as “Aeroceramica”. That first year, 1932, he won the gold medal in the annual exhibition of the Veneto Institute of Arts and Craft. This brought him immediate recognition in the art world. Two years later, in 1934, Tosin entered into an exclusive agreement with a Milan wholesaler, Faone Scardin. As part of that agreement the initials “FS” had to be added to the Tosin trademark to show that Scardin was the exclusive outlet for Tosin’s artwork. The end of World War II also brought an end to the Scardin/Tosin partnership. Tosin died in 1990 and his son, Ferdinand, now operates the studio. This is a lovely example of Tosin's work, these pieces are extremely rare and very hard to come by...it looks to me as though this is one of his earlier pieces, in the shabby appearance of this cute piece. This would make an ideal heirloom for someone really special. This piece boasts Tosin's signature arrow sign on the bottom...please see pictures...hence dating this piece of pottery around the 1930's mark and from the Studio La Freccia de Tarcisio Tosin It measures 11 x 12 cm approx SOURCED IN BLIGHTY BY HAPPY HARRIS SOURCED IN BLIGHTY BY HAPPY HARRIS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU CHOOSE THE CORRECT DESTINATION IN THE DROP DOWN MENU BELOW.
