"Flamingo" Side Table by Michele De Lucchi

About the Item

Michele De Lucchi was a principal member of the Italian radical groups Alchymia and Memphis. This elegant table, created for Memphis in 1984, is one of a series of four which use similar elements, color and surface decoration. The names Kristall, Continental and Polar are taken from luxury hotels, bars and restaurants common for early Memphis objects, because "Memphis" was indeed a state of mind, a state of the soul at the end of the 20th century.
