Aldo Tura Thermos Carafe for Macabo - Sculpted Wood with Gouge and Lacquer

Turned wood & artisanal engraving with a gouge: The generous body made of solid turned wood is encircled by a wide band lacquered in a stunning bright cobalt blue. The geometric crosshatch pattern is not simply painted; it is sculpted in relief with a gouge, revealing the natural color and grain of the solid wood. Unique flared neck & bullet-shaped stopper: Unlike the more common simplified straight necks found in Macabo products, this model features a very architectural flared neck in gilded brass, topped with a guilloché/cannelé ring and its original bullet-shaped stopper equipped with a sealing cork. Rare Cobalt Blue hue: While Macabo productions from this era generally favored brown, ochre, or bottle green tones, the use of this vibrant majorelle/cobalt blue on sculpted wood is extremely rare on the market. Very good vintage condition. Superb shine of the wood and lacquer, no cracks or missing parts. The brass shows its original patina with slight traces of oxidation and signs of age.
