ABOUT PRODUCTID 11238
Produced by Emsa in Germany during the 1970s, this watering can embodies mid-century modern design principles. The body is crafted from molded plastic in a deep, glossy black, while two decorative copper-colored bands—one encircling the top, the other the base—display a nuanced green-blue patina typical of natural oxidation. These bands are embossed with a geometric, Greek key pattern, subtly referencing classical motifs within a decidedly modern context.

Its streamlined silhouette and attention to detail reflect a time when domestic objects
