Description from the seller
Postmodern Italian wooden bowl, produced circa 1980, marked Manzoni Pietro.
The scale is made of turned wood and finished with a high-quality lacquer in contrasting colors. The body has a warm natural wood tone, paired with a dark-edged rim (black/dark blue) and a red lacquered foot. The bold color contrasts and the sculptural, balanced design are characteristic of Italian postmodern design from the late 20th century.
At the underside there is a burned-in maker's mark 'PMT', with the labels Milano / Bergamo, indicating production in Northern Italy. This type of marking is found on design objects from small workshops or specialized manufacturers from this period.
The bowl was originally intended as a decorative fruit bowl or centerpiece, but today it is primarily valued as a collectible within Italian design and postmodernism.
