About the Item
This rare set of six red plastic placemats was produced in Italy by Robex during the 1970s and represents a striking example of Space Age–influenced Italian table design. Defined by a sculptural oval form with an integrated square recess, the design reflects the period’s exploration of geometry, color, and innovative synthetic materials.
Manufactured in glossy red plastic, these placemats demonstrate how everyday domestic objects were transformed into expressive design statements during the postwar decades. Their bold silhouette and saturated color make them visually impactful both in use and as decorative accents on a dining table or sideboard.
Each piece retains its original Robex label, confirming authenticity and Italian origin. The set is in excellent vintage condition, with only minor superficial surface marks consistent with age and careful use.
A collectible ensemble suited to interiors focused on Italian modernism, Space Age aesthetics, or mid-century design, these placemats exemplify the era’s optimistic and experimental approach to functional objects.
