About the Item

Ploppy Miniature is a smaller-scale realization of Zieta’s most iconic collection, Plopp stools. The unique, toy-looking and playful shape of Ploppy Miniature is an effect of an innovative formig method – FIDU. FIDU technology means that two ultra-thin steel sheets are welded together around their edges and inflated under high pressure to give a 3d object. FIDU enables mass production of individualized shapes. Forms made in FIDU are very light but also very durable. Ploppy Miniature is available in carbon steel and stainless steel with the following finish options; Carbon Steel: RAL 3018 strawberry red RAL 5021 water blue matt Stainless steel: Polished About the artist/ designer: Oskar Zieta – an architect, designer, artist and innovator.
