Sterling Silver Sculptural Vessel – 2 – Marco Zanini For Pampaloni – Italy

This exceptional sterling silver vessel was designed by Marco Zanini for Pampaloni, one of Italy’s most renowned silversmiths, celebrated for their innovation and craftsmanship since 1902. Bold and architectonic, the vessel features a sharply angled Z-shaped form punctuated by six precision-cut circular openings across the front panel. Crafted in solid sterling silver (not silver plate), the piece is mirror polished to a brilliant finish, reflecting light with dramatic effect. Zanini, a founding member of the iconic Memphis Group, brings a sculptural, postmodern sensibility to the design, infusing it with both playfulness and rigor. The vessel functions as both a utilitarian object and a collectible artwork, perfect for floral arrangements or as a standalone statement piece. Fully stamped and hallmarked, this rare object merges Italian design history with masterful silversmithing. This is an outstanding addition to any collection of fine decorative arts or 20th-century design. Weight: 10lbs
