Pair of modernist nude figurative vases in porcelain by Sargadelos.

A pair of modernist nude figurative vases in porcelain by Sargadelos from Spain, designed by Isaac Díaz Pardo in the 1970s, although this pair is likely from the 2000s. The anthropomorphic pair — male and female — is hand-painted with a dark blue linear decoration reminiscent of cubist patterns influenced by Picasso on a background of pure white porcelain. Their elongated sculptural forms reinterpret the human figure in abstraction, uniting modernist aesthetics with the refined tradition of Spanish porcelain. Both pieces are in perfect condition, with bright glazing and sharp decoration, the female vase showing a subtly lighter shade of blue than the male — a detail that highlights the individuality of the hand-painted design. Galician porcelain Sargadelos is renowned for its beauty, style, and innovative designs. These rare vases are a remarkable example of their craftsmanship. Díaz Pardo, co-founder of the Sargadelos modernist movement, played a central role in creating a design language that merges avant-garde art with Galician heritage. Displayed together on a mantelpiece, console, or shelf, this pair makes a striking statement for collectors of modernist ceramics and a refined gift for enthusiasts of Spanish porcelain and figurative design.
