Born from the idea of Ettore Sottsass and a group of young designers and architects, in Milan, coupled in the years by famous designers from the international scene, Memphis turned upside down all of the existing parameters on living. Ettore Sottsass as the backbone of the group, design gained a new concept and expression through new shapes, materials and patterns, expanding the creative limits of the industry. Memphis became a symbol of New Design. Its influence is still clear in various sectors of production and beyond.Additional Info:- Dimensions: W 16.5, D 13.5, H 11.5 inches- Lighting Info: Bulb PL9- Materials: Steel.- Additional Lighting Info: Please note that this item is wired in 220 V for the standard EU light socket. - If you are located outside of the EU, this item may require additional attention.- Purchased products are shipped with forms of authenticity by Memphis Milano, as well as a metal plaque which contains the signature of the designer, and the year which the product was originally designed in.- Pricing: Prices do not include VAT.
