Italian Modernist Lucite and Chrome Box, Attributed to Willy Rizzo, circa 1970 A striking example of Italian modernist design, this rare sculptural Lucite and chrome box evokes the bold aesthetic often associated with Willy Rizzo. Expertly crafted in Italy circa 1970, the piece features a sleek, rectangular silhouette, anchored by extra-thick slabs of transparent Lucite that form both the base and lid. The surface showcases a dramatic, wrinkled, molded texture that mimics the crystalline beauty of frosted ice, catching light in mesmerizing ways. Encircling the box is a polished chrome belt, adding a refined metallic contrast to the icy translucence of the Lucite. Though unsigned, the craftsmanship and design language suggest a high-end origin consistent with the era's leading decorative artists.
Dimensions: 8.69 in wide (22 cm) by 3.94 in deep (10 cm) by 2.57 in high (6.5 cm).
