An icon of Italian domestic design: classic elegance and Pop soul.
This refined globe-shaped container, carefully selected by Garage1977Studio, is an authentic piece of Italian modernity from the 1950s and 1960s. Unlike common large bar globes, this model stands out for its compact proportions, which make it a precious desk accessory or a refined representative pocket emptier.
