ABOUT PRODUCTID 27195
This umbrella holder, designed by Ettore Sottsass for Rinnovel Italy in the 1950s, is a distinguished example of Italian mid-century modern design, balancing striking form with everyday utility. The conical body is crafted from metal in a cool, slightly muted teal blue, finished with a semi-gloss sheen. Three slender, angled legs in brass or brass-toned metal, joined by a polished support ring, create a subtle yet eye-catching contrast with the blue body. The top features a metallic insert with three large circular openings, finished in a warm, gently patinated brass tone, showing signs of age and use. The proportions are harmonious: the wide mouth narrows elegantly towards the base, while the splayed legs provide stability and a sense of visual lightness. The surface displays minor scratches and a light patina consistent with age, yet the overall condition is good for a vintage piece, with no major damages or repairs and all components appearing original. In its contours and finish, the piece echoes the distinct voice of 1950s Italian modernism: practicality meets geometric discipline, enlivened by a subtle play of color and material. The metallic blue evokes Mediterranean clarity
