Pair of “donut” vases / cast aluminum – 1970s Italy

PAIR OF CAST ALUMINUM “DONUTS” VASES – MADE IN ITALY, 1970s. Sculptural pair of cast aluminum vases, made in Italy in the 1970s. Their circular shape with a pierced center evokes a stylized “doughnut,” somewhere between geometric abstraction and radical design. The polished metal highlights the full curves and simplicity of the gesture, in a spirit that is both minimalist and decorative. Decorative objects with a strong visual impact, these vases perfectly embody the modernist and industrial spirit of Italian design of the time.
