Pala Torta Vintage SABATTINI "Pala" Lino Sabattini - Design Space Age, 1970s
extraordinary piece of Italian mid-century modern design: the famous cake server model "Pala", designed by master silversmith Lino Sabattini (attributed to production circa 1973).
Characterized by asymmetric, fluid lines and strongly aerodynamic, this object perfectly embodies Space Age aesthetics and avant-garde organic design.

His works are so significant in the history of mid-century design that many of his objects are exhibited in the world's most important museums, including MoMA in New York.
