ABOUT PRODUCTID 17126
Designed by Studio Erre for Italian brand Rexite in the 1970s, this decorative platter is a prime example of mid-century modern, marked by geometric clarity and understated simplicity. The wide, low bowl—20 cm in diameter—features a satin-finished metallic upper section and a sturdy, matte beige plastic base. The metallic rim gently transitions into an interior defined by a gradient: smoky bronze at the edge shifting to a deep, almost black brown at the center. The semi-matte finish, evident in the images, accentuates the subtle play of color. A distinctive feature is the liftable top that reveals extra storage below, enhancing functionality without visible seams or fasteners. The platter remains in excellent condition, free from visible wear, cracks, or any trace of repair—surfaces are even and authentically preserved. This piece speaks in the tones of its era, channeling a period when Italian design told stories of simplicity imbued with complexity. The 1970s spirit comes through in the object's double life as both functional and sculptural: every material nuance and color transition carefully considered. The soft, metallic sheen evokes southern light, while the interior gradient hints at the experimental approach to hue and illumination so fundamental to Italian design. This platter preserves the discreet sense of luxury and invites reminiscence of a time when tabletop objects were at once sculptural and utilitarian. The platter would suit a mid-century modern living room or an eclectic collector’s space. It can be paired with chrome candlesticks, Murano glass, or a low table in dark-toned wood to highlight its interior gradient. It works well against
