"Paper bag" vase by Tapio Wirkkala, Rosenthal, 1970s.

The "Tütenvase" is a decorative and utilitarian object made of fine porcelain designed to imitate the appearance of a crumpled paper bag. It is part of a series that has become emblematic of 20th-century design. Created in the 1970s by Finnish designer Tapio Wirkkala for Rosenthal Studio-Line, it reproduces the illusion of a crumpled paper bag, playing with everyday shapes transformed into a noble object. This piece was published for the brand's centenary in 1979; in very good condition. Height: 19cm Width: 12.5cm Depth: 7cm Fast and careful shipping.
