Description from the seller

Vintage designer bottle holder with a distinctive spherical shape, made in mirror-polished chrome metal and resting on a black cylindrical base.

The body consists of a gleaming sphere with a wide rounded edge, while the top houses a removable black plastic insert with 7 cylindrical recesses for bottles. The insert can be completely withdrawn, leaving the internal metal cavity free, equipped with a dividing crossbar.

The contrast between the reflective chrome and the matte black of the base and insert recalls the Space Age aesthetic of the 1970s, when spherical forms and reflective materials dominated the design of furnishings.

Thanks to its sculptural form, it works both as a functional object and as a piece of furniture: perfect for the living room, bar area, restaurant, hotel, professional studio, or any environment decorated in vintage and mid-century style.

Dimensions

Diameter: 34 x 34 cm
Height: about 30 cm (measured without bottles, with the insert positioned perfectly horizontal)

Note: the upper insert can be rotated and tilted inside the sphere; varying the tilt accordingly changes the overall height.

Condition
The external chrome is in excellent condition, shiny and free of significant defects.
Normal signs of wear are present on the internal parts, on the black insert and on the base, as clearly visible in the photographs, which are an integral part of the description.
Object intact and complete in all its parts.

Shipping
Tracked shipping with careful packaging and reinforced protection, suitable for the nature of the object.
