Synopsis

The glorious Manifattura Lenci of Turin is the protagonist of this volume, which presents one hundred and fifty works belonging to the Ferrero Collection. Small plastics and decorative sculptures have made the fortune of this historical manufacture, first active in the field of cloths and dolls, for "toys in general, furniture, furnishings and children's clothing", and subsequently, since 1927, in the ceramic sector. The Lenci production was inspired by the fashion magazines of its time, between customs and bon ton, reflecting the taste of an era and a society, which had identified in its products the bourgeois status symbol. Lenci was characterized over the years by the creative contribution of important artists such as Sandro Vacchetti, Elena Konig Scavini, Marcello Dudovich, Gigi Chessa, Mario Sturani, Abele Jacopi, who made the ceramic production unique and inimitable. In the footsteps of Lenci fits the successful production of Essevì ceramics, a brand founded in 1934 by Sandro Vacchetti, former artistic director of the Lenci manufactory, of which it constitutes an ongoing continuation. The volume, presented by critical essays that trace the history of these manufactures, has a rich iconographic repertoire, with a color catalog and a large b/w inventory.
