ABOUT PRODUCTID 6106
This postmodern fruit bowl from Italy, crafted in the 1990s, is formed from chromed steel wire arranged in a precise geometric spiral. The structure comprises several concentric rings, creating a shallow, open form that allows excellent airflow around displayed fruit. The entire piece stands on three slender legs, each finished with a polished sphere that serves as both a decorative accent and a stabilizing base. The bowl is rendered in a cool, mirror-like silver with a highly reflective finish, and its proportions—28 cm in diameter and 8 cm in height—emphasize horizontality and visual lightness. Connections between the rings and legs are clean and precise, with no visible weld marks, reflecting careful craftsmanship. The bowl is preserved in excellent condition, showing only minimal signs of use characteristic of the late 20th century. This piece speaks with the playful and ironic voice of Italian postmodernism at the close of the century. Its spiral construction appears to defy gravity, lightly lifting fruit as if inviting a more whimsical, less solemn approach to everyday objects. The cool metal surface catches and scatters ambient light, creating shifting reflections and reminding us that, in the postmodern era, functional objects often took on the role of small, sculptural statements. The fruit bowl works beautifully on a contemporary kitchen counter or as a centerpiece on a low living room table. It could be paired with brightly colored ceramics or minimalist glassware to highlight its graphic structure
