Description from the seller

Ceramic sugar shaker designed by Mario Sturani for the Lenci manufactory in Turin, conceived as if every element were formed from a sheet of paper, specifically from a piece of musical score.
The design, though dating from the 1940s, is modern; in fact from that period Lenci began to experiment with less decorative forms for the objects section, anticipating some themes of postwar Italian design.
Dimensions: 7.4 × 13 × 6.4 cm (h).
It shows some chipping, clearly visible in the photo.
