A magnificent example of high-end contemporary design (late 1990s/early 2000s), perfect for serving wines and champagne with unparalleled class.

the set includes:

1. Large insulated bottle cooler.

2. Ice bucket.

3. Matching metal ice tongs.

design and materials: the distinctive feature of this collection is the exterior metalwork (with a silver-plated finish), characterized by a hand-hammered surface. This irregular texture creates infinite plays of light and gives the pieces a textured, almost sculptural appearance, typical of navone's eclectic style. The interior of both pieces houses a heavy, removable glass cylinder. This "double-wall" solution is not only aesthetically pleasing but highly functional: it creates thermal insulation that keeps the cold much longer than metal-only buckets and makes cleaning easier.

brands and authenticity: the signature "paolanavone x egizia" is engraved on the bottom of the metal pieces, certifying their provenance and collectible value.

technical details and condition:

designer: paola navone.

brand: egizia (made in italy).

materials: metal with hammered silver-plated finish, glass inserts, steel/metal clamp.

era: modern (late 20th - early 21st century).

bottle holder dimensions: diameter 17 cm - height 25 cm.

bucket dimensions: diameter 13.5 cm - height 13.5 cm.

condition: excellent overall condition. The glass is perfect. The metal part retains a beautiful shine; any slight marks or patinas are intrinsic to the hammered craftsmanship and vintage silver plating.
note for collectors: the pieces from the navone-egizia collaboration are out of production and very difficult to find, especially in matching sets complete with pliers. A safe investment for those who love italian design and the art of entertaining.
