A beautiful rectangular box made in Italy in the manner of Dior Home, in good overall condition. This Italian box from the 1980s is a striking and distinctive piece that embodies the innovative spirit of the era. This box exemplifies the fusion of modernist design principles with tactile materials, resulting in a visually appealing and functional work of art. The rectangular shape of the box is a reminder of the geometric simplicity often found in modernist design. However, what sets this piece apart is the skilful use of materials: brass, plexiglass and Vienna straw. The combination of these contrasting elements creates a juxtaposition of transparency and texture, capturing the viewer's attention and inviting them to explore the work further. The earthy tones and natural feel of the Vienna straw contrast beautifully with the sheen of the Plexiglas, creating a harmonious balance between the two materials, while the brass adds warmth and opulence. The box encapsulates the essence of its time. Its modernist design language, innovative use of materials and seamless integration of form and function make it an iconic representation of 1980s design. This piece transcends its utilitarian purpose to become a statement of creativity, pushing the boundaries of traditional design and embracing the spirit of experimentation that defined the era.
