small vase, NUOVA CERAMICA NUOVE TENDENTSE

TENDENTSE was a project by Ettore Sottsass, Adolfo Natalini, Andrea Branzi, Aldo Cibic, Michele de Lucchi and Alessandro Mendini in 1985 with the aim of developing handmade objects with "emotional content" and not just pure function. Ceramic was chosen as the material. Later, in 1989, TENDENTSE was taken over by ALESSI as a label. The vase offered here is from the early, rare TENDENTSE production !!!

ROCCHETTO goes back to a sketch from 1959, an archaic form for Sottsass that can be found in many of his designs.
