In the 1960s, Italian desk and tableware design frequently explored the contrast between raw materials and noble metals. This catch-all illustrates this approach with an economy of means: a thick, clean-cut square slab of speckled grey granite, housing a polished brass circular cup embedded flush with the stone.
The opposition of granite and brass is the very subject of the piece. The stone, raw and unpolished on the edges, contrasts with the precisely turned golden cup. Italian craftsmanship, circa 1960. Unidentified designer and maker.
Overall condition very good. The brass shows a natural golden patina with slight, homogeneous, and unadulterated localized oxidation. The granite is intact, with no chips or cracks.
Dimensions: height 3 cm, width 18 cm, length 18 cm.
To be placed on a desk, a bedside table, or a console. Functions as a catch-all, ashtray, or simple decorative object.
