Sculptural modular pedestal designed by Pierluigi Spadolini for Kartell, model Fiocco, produced in Italy during the 1970s.
This iconic piece exemplifies Kartell’s pioneering use of molded plastics in the post-war period and reflects the refined modernist and space-age aesthetics of Italian design from the era.
The pedestal consists of stackable cylindrical modules with softly contoured, organic seams, allowing for flexible height and composition. Originally conceived as a plant stand, it is equally suitable as a display pedestal for art objects, sculpture, or decorative pieces, making it highly versatile for both residential and gallery interiors.
