The Round Tray Van Gogh

Did you know that…

The “chrome yellow” – Van Gogh’s signature stylistic signature – an example of which is Sunflowers or The Room at Arles, must have been much brighter when it was laid down on canvas. Over time, this unstable pigment faded.

Ceramic trays

The trays in the Heart Gallery collection are practical and beautiful to use as art supplies as well. They are circular trays with a diameter of 33 cm. For serving coffee or bitters at the end of a meal.

Design

The simple shape is embellished by decidedly contemporary decorations: the depiction of Van Gogh by Steve Kaufman, assistant to Andy Warhol’s New York Factory, or the pictorial and graphic patterns of Laura Ellero, Italian artist and designer.

Steve Kaufman

Steven Kaufman was an American pop artist, sculptor, filmmaker, and photographer. His entry into the world of serious pop art began in his teens when he became an assistant to Andy Warhol at The Factory studio. Nicknamed “SAK” by Warhol, Kaufman eventually executed such pieces as a 144-foot-long canvas which later toured the country.

Production

Heart Gallery ceramic trays are handmade in Italy and the production cycle is eco-sustainable, with firing ovens powered by photovoltaic panels. A simple and loving contribution to a lifestyle that is not only more creative but also ecological.

Materials

All trays are produced using selected Italian clay and non-toxic enamels, free of lead or other substances harmful to health, in accordance with the latest European regulations.
