Among his many works, he established the sgraffito technique, a wall art method where a drawing is made by scraping off the wet top layer of plaster made of two contrasting colors. \u003cbr\u003eThis flower vase is a work using that technique, depicting a bouquet with an exquisitely beautiful turquoise blue. \u003cbr\u003eAlthough it is over 100 years old, it has not faded and is preserved in very beautiful condition. \u003cbr\u003eHis autograph remains on the back. \u003cbr\u003eThis is a very valuable and artistically excellent piece. \u003cbr\u003eFor items weighing 2kg or less, we will ship them as letters unless otherwise specified by the customer.
