TANGANYKA Ceramic Flower Vase by Marco Zanini for Memphis Milano
About the Item
Tanganyika ceramic flower vase by Marco Zannini (Italy).
Very rare, perhaps only 10-12 were ever made. Zannini had the notion (correctly, in actuality) that most artistic flower vases almost never get used in reality. Thus, he designed for this piece (as well as its companion works, Baykal and victoria) its own ceramic "flower".
Large and prepossessing in scale, it is a true early Memphis icon.
Fabricated by Bitossi Ceramiche (Firenze) under the skillful eyes of Master Ceramicists Aldo Londi & Giovanni Masoni.
