About the Item
A sculptural silver-plated metal salt and pepper shaker set titled "Ogiva" designed by Massimo Iosa Ghini for Argenteria Merano. Produced for Design Gallery Milan in 1989. Maker's mark on underside. The set features a streamlined, rocket-like silhouette, reflecting Iosa Ghini's signature Bolidism style, which merged movement, form, and industrial precision. Crafted in silver-plated metal, the piece highlights a harmonious balance between functionality and art object. With its machine-age geometry and metallic finish, Ogiva stands as both a refined tabletop design and a collectible icon of Milan's avant-garde design era.
Provenance: From a substantial Memphis Milano collection in Franklin, Michigan; acquired circa 1990s. Dimensions: 6.5"h x 3.25"w x 2"d. In good vintage condition. Full condition reports available upon request.
