Description
An original vintage Guzzini design classic from the 1970s/1980s.
The set was designed by Carlo Viglino in 1977 for Guzzini, Italy.
A 6-person space-age and pure retro picnic set, all contained within an orb.
Not sure when this version dates from, made in Italy.
This set is in a white colour and is as follows:
6 shallow bowls (17cm wide), 6 side plates (21.5cm wide), 6 large plates (24cm), 6 clear beakers/cups (7.5cm tall), a dressing dispenser (10.3cm tall, not sure how it works), a central tray (24.5cm wide) and the two large outer shells (which double up as salad bowls), with removable carry handle.
Orb is apx 27cm wide x 23cm high.
Very good used condition with some small signs of use.
No noticeable chips or cracks on the plastic/melamine.
Some noticeable knife marks to some plastic plates/dishes from use.
And some plates and bowls are as new.
The cups have some fine crizzle marks – they probably went through a dishwasher.
The two outer shells are branded with ‘Guzzini, per alimeni, made in Italy’.
Outer surfaces are very good with some small marks.
The two outer tabs on the handle tuck outwards to form a ‘lock’, but it is best to hold the set from underneath.
