The work, titled "Modulo," perfectly embodies the minimalist and conceptual aesthetic of the era. It is composed of solid geometric elements topped with hemispherical pins, evoking a mechanical or industrial form reinterpreted through the nobility of Apuan marble. The distinctiveness of this piece lies in the contrast between the rigidity of the stone and the visual softness of its smooth curves.

The object retains its original red label from the period, certifying its authenticity and provenance, describing it as a "limited-edition contemporary art sculpture." It is a piece that straddles the boundary between a pure art object and a high-design furnishing accessory (a "desk object" or sculptural paperweight).
