GIO PONTI AND VISTOSI FLOWER HOLDER FOR SABATINI

GIO PONTI AND VISTOSI FLOWER HOLDER FOR SABATINI

 A very elegant and useful object. This minimalist "vase" was designed by Gio Ponti, the smoky glass is by Vistosi, Murano, and it was designed for Sabatini in the 1970's. The polished metal top can slide across the top of the glass, and has seven asymetrically placed openings to hold flowers, but it is just as beautiful without flowers. 6" H x 10" W x 6" D.

Gio Ponti, Vistosi, Sabatini, Italy
