Mahdavi India

Mahdavi India, Inspired by Mahdavi’s obsession with flowers and pop culture, Pistil is like a zoomed-in part of a flower. Highly stylised and cartoon-like, this super sophisticated piece showcases Mahdavi’s iconic flair. The table top is made of a single piece of handmade cast glass, while the base is made of brass. The intensive and highly skilled production process gives the table its unique, rippled surface on the under- side. As with real flowers, it is perfectly imperfect. In fact, for India Mahdavi, flow- ers make us realise a fragility of the world and that the beauty of what we have might disappear. Recreating them in a resistant material like glass shows their delicacy while at the same time preserving their beauty. -- Unique Shipped from Italy Item liable to VAT 2019
