Innovative silver objects feature heavily in the oeuvre of Gio Ponti, the polymath widely recognised as the ‘father’ of contemporary Italian design. This silver-plated coffee pot was created by Ponti in collaboration with Fratelli Calderoni in the 1950s, its hammered texture indicative of the partnership’s desire to push the design needle forward. Please note, this item is a truly original vintage piece with slight imperfections and distinctive characteristics that add to its charm and celebrate its unique history.
