ABOUT PRODUCTID 1943
The Vitri watering can, produced in West Germany during the 1960s, exemplifies mid-century modern design shaped by the postwar optimism and innovation showcased at the 1958 Brussels Expo. Crafted from molded plastic, it features a saturated mustard yellow hue with a matte finish. Its circular body is punctuated by a large, open handle seamlessly integrated into the form, while the long, slender spout lends the silhouette a dynamic, sculptural quality. The surface is finely textured and uniformly colored, free from additional patterns or visible joints, emphasizing the modernist purity of the object. The 'Vitri Made in West Germany' stamp on the underside confirms its provenance. The watering can remains in excellent condition, with no visible discoloration, cracks, or losses. This watering can echoes an era when everyday objects gained new significance through bold geometry and confident color. Its flowing lines and deep yellow tone recall a time when designers believed functional tools could bring joy and freshness into the home. The elegantly extended spout gestures toward the future, reflecting the era's enthusiasm for technology, while the lightweight form reveals a fascination with the possibilities of new materials. The Vitri watering can may serve as both a practical and decorative accent among indoor plants—pairing well with light wood shelving, ceramic pots, or minimalist mid-century modern furnishings. It could be displayed alongside other 1960s objects, such as colored glassware or metal lamps, to reinforce the period’s atmosphere. In more eclectic settings, it functions as a geometric statement piece amidst neutral textiles and greenery.
