Aldo Londi Vases for Raymor |
Raymor Imports founded by Irving Richards started out distributing modern domestic products with designs by noted American designers such as Gilbert Rohde, Donald Deskey, Walter Dorwin Teague, Ray and Charles Eames, George Nelson, and Eva Zeisel. After World War II they started importing designs by some important Europeans. These included Pottery by Bitossi, Aldo Londi, Gambone, and not the least Fantoni.
A lot of the pottery by Bitossi was glazed in
Rimini Blue.

Through the distibution of Raymor, these pieces were sold in some of the larger well known department store in the states. Recently there has been a resurgence of interest in the designs of these artist along with the revival of the designs of the early modernist. Raymor pieces have become highly valued and collectable.
