About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
A rare Space‑Age planter designed by Nena Balsari for Kartell, model 4687, produced in Italy during the 1970s.
This sculptural piece embodies the playful futurism of Italian plastic design, with its distinctive triangular form, soft curves, and clean white tone. Balsari’s work for Kartell is far less common than Castelli Ferrieri’s, making this planter a desirable object for collectors of mid‑century modern plastics.
Crafted in durable molded plastic, the piece retains its original geometry and presence. Signs of gentle aging are visible, consistent with its 50‑year history, but the overall condition remains good, with no structural issues.
A striking accent for interiors that appreciate Space‑Age silhouettes, radical design, and iconic Italian manufacturing.
