Tortoiseshell Lucite wastepaper basket by Michel Dumas for Roche Bobois, 70

Elegant lucite wastepaper basket, designed in the 1970s by michel dumas for roche bobois. This iconic model seduces with its tall, square silhouette, with clean lines, enhanced by a tortoiseshell-like textured pattern, typical of the design of the time. Two large round handles, cut from the material, evoke the aesthetic of portholes and reinforce its modernist look. A vertical band in silver lucite aptly emphasizes the balance of the composition. Rare and refined, this piece fits equally well in an office or a contemporary bathroom. No visible signature, as is often the case with dumas' creations. Dimensions: 40 cm high, 20.5 cm wide and deep. Very good overall condition: slight discreet signs of use.
