1980s Plexiglass and Vienna Straw Rectangular Box in the manner of Dior Home

About the Item

A lovely rectangular box manufactured in Italy in the manner of Dior home, it's in good conditions overall. The 1980s Italian Box 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 captivating and functional work of art. The rectangular shape of the box is a nod to the geometric simplicity often seen in modernist design. However, what sets this piece apart is the expert use of materials – brass, plexiglass and Vienna straw. The combination of these contrasting elements creates a juxtaposition of transparency and texture, captivating the viewer's attention and inviting them to explore the piece further. The Vienna straw's earthy tones and natural feel contrast beautifully with the sleekness of the plexiglass, creating a harmonious balance between the two materials, 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.
