This object is much more than a simple furnishing accessory: it is a functional sculpture that has shaped the history of 20th-century design.

Its slender shape and metal frame make it a unique piece, capable of elegantly enhancing any space, from the entrance of a modern apartment to a professional studio.

Condition:

The supporting structure is in excellent condition: solid, sturdy, and perfectly stable (weighs 10 kg).

Specifically, the original paint shows several areas of wear, chipping, and scratches.

For the collector: it retains the authentic, lived-in charm of original modern antiques.
