Vintage Ceramic La Linea Figurines in Red by Osvaldo Cavandoli, 1960s, Set of 5

Rare and highly sought-after, this complete set of five ceramic figurines comes from the iconic La Linea series by Osvaldo Cavandoli, originally crafted between the late 1950s and 1970s. A true gem for collectors of 1960s ceramic figurines, these glossy flame-red sculptures embody the witty, expressive spirit of Cavandoli’s celebrated animated character.

Each figurine presents a different playful pose — walking, laughing, sulking, gesturing boldly, and embracing — instantly recognizable to fans of Cavandoli’s work. Their stylized forms are both minimalist and deeply expressive, making them captivating pieces of mid-century modern art.

Marked with the original CAVA engraving on the back, these handmade ceramic sculptures are authentic collectibles in excellent vintage condition. A must-have for fans of Italian design, retro art, or 1960s ceramics, this La Linea set captures a unique moment in design history with humor, charm, and unmistakable style.
