Dear Bidders,

The vases have playful forms inspired by a milk carton, a beverage ( coca - cola ) can, napkin and a paper bag. The small plate / tray is shaped like a paper tray for French fries.

SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

* Designed by Tapio Wirkkala in ca. 1975 under the name "Do not litter”
* Measurements: approx. vases between 17 and 9 cm high, plate / tray 14x9x4 cm
* Please watch carefully all the pictures, they are also a part of description ( each one can be enlarged )
* I would like to point out that the items I am selling are several decades old and therefore show general signs of use and age, such as minor scratches, scuffs, discoloration, dust, patina, chips, dents etc.

IMPORTANT:
If, however, the item is damaged or lost, please contact me via the internal Catawiki chat.
According to EU law for courier companies, in any case of damage to an international shipment, the first step in obtaining compensation is for the RECIPIENT to report the damage to their local supplier within 7 days of receiving the shipment. Only then, after the RECIPENT ( you ) receives a certificate of damage, I as the sender can claim compensation.
In addition, the following photos will be required: the damage to the item, the outside of the box with the shipping label, and the inside of the box including the materials used to protect the shipment.
