A rare example of the famous niche designed by Willy Guhl in Switzerland, presented here with its original base.
This architecturally striking piece perfectly illustrates the designer's approach: a monolithic, curved form, reduced to its essence, where functionality and sculptural presence converge.
The surface displays a magnificent, homogeneous, and perfectly balanced natural patina, developed over time and revealing the full depth of the material. Both elements—the structure and its base—are intact and in excellent condition, forming a complete and authentic ensemble.
Originally designed for outdoor use, this piece is now sought after as a collector's item, equally at home in a structured garden or as a sculptural element in contemporary architecture.
