This is an exceptional example of Mid-Century Studio Design, defined by its tactile, hand-wrought appearance. The bowl features a deep, silver-toned basin with a stunning hammered (martelé) texture. Each tiny dimple in the metal catches the light at a different angle, creating a soft, shimmering glow that contrasts beautifully with the industrial material.
The piece is elevated by three perfectly spherical wood ball feet, a signature of high-end Dutch and Scandinavian modernism. This creates a "floating" silhouette that makes the heavy, textured metal appear light and architectural. It is a sophisticated piece of functional art, perfect as a minimalist fruit bowl, a sculptural entryway catch-all, or a standalone centerpiece for a teak sideboard.
The Details:
• Era: 1960s.
• Style: Mid-Century Modern / Brutalist / Studio Craft.
• Texture: All-over hammered/dimpled "Martelé" finish.
• Material: Textured Silver-toned Metal & Solid Teak Wood.
• Shape: Deep circular "floating" basin on tri-point pedestal base.
Diameter: 23.5 cm
Condition:
Excellent vintage condition. The hammered texture is crisp and consistent across the entire piece. The interior is clean, and the three teak feet are securely attached with a rich, healthy wood grain. The textured finish is excellent for maintaining a "clean" look as it naturally resists showing smudges or fingerprints.
