1980s Modernist Black Cavallino and Silver Plated Italian Thermos Carafe

About the Item

This Italian Thermos Carafe is an elegant and sophisticated example of luxury functional design from that period, blending high-end materials with modernist aesthetics. The body of the carafe is wrapped in black horse skin. This material is known for its durability and unique texture, often featuring a natural sheen. The use of horse skin in design was popular in Italian luxury goods, adding an element of opulence and tactile richness to the piece. The thermos features silver-plated details. Silver-plating adds a sleek, polished finish, providing a contrast to the matte texture of the horse skin. The silver not only enhances the visual appeal but also gives the piece a refined, luxurious touch. This thermos carafe is a statement piece, ideal for someone with a taste for luxury and modernist design. It blends the rich texture of black horse skin with the gleaming finish of silver-plated accents, creating a functional yet highly decorative object. It would be at home in a modern or minimalist kitchen, or as part of a luxury coffee or tea service. It's in perfect condition, probably never used.
