FRUIT BOWL, EAD, Ettore Sottsass
Ettore Sottsass
Fruit Bowl
1978
Original condition, used, one owner since 1978. It comes from the private collection of a Cologne design gallery that opened in 1975. The owner was a personal friend of Mr. Sottsass, and the bowl was a gift.
EAD as a company is a mystery to me; I can't find anything about them in the literature and I've never seen a catalog. Agliana, Pistoia... Poltronova was also based in this city at one time. I would be very grateful for any further information.
The wood is untreated and the top part, the shell, is made of unpainted sheet steel.
EAD, Edizioni Arte Design
(Agliana, Pistoia, Italy)
Ø 32 cm, 25 cm high
a used design object, an original, differential taxation according to § 25a UStG
