AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Luminous sign derived from an original ENI sign (the side metal mounting parts removed; it was presumably a “flag” model).
The sign is characterized by the famous six-legged dog, a historic symbol of Made in Italy; it was originally designed by Luigi Broggini in 1952 and later redefined in the modern restyling of the 1990s by the renowned graphic studio Armando Testa.
The starting sign is part of the official production intended for service stations of the era, it has some imperfections and a scratch present. It has several lighting shades; when lit it is very evocative and is ideal to enrich any wall, giving a beautiful atmosphere.
The object has been converted into a modern furnishing accessory. This flexibility makes it perfect both as a visually striking piece of furniture for a living room or kitchen, and as a suggestive outdoor night light. The dimensions are about 50 x 50 cm (with irregular edges).
Bulky and heavy package, shipped with courier.
We do not ship to countries with complex customs practices or that are subject to political-regulatory situations that could cause problems in shipping: USA, Switzerland, Russia, Arabian Peninsula countries, Canada, Australia, India.
