Teresa Box – Collection Scatole Segrete (Secret Boxes Collection) by Ettore Sottsass – numbered limited edition, number 22

Description

We are pleased to offer these very beautiful, collectable, numbered limited edition pieces: miniature works of architecture that are intended to house, in Sotssass’ romantic words, “things to be kept a bit secret; a special paintbrush, notebooks made of special paper, love letters maybe”. The late, great Sottsass also intended the boxes themselves to be treated as preciously as their contents, so a box can “feel that I am treating it gently and don’t want to hurt it in any way”.

This collection was produced as a limited run of 99. We are proud to be able to offer number 22, offering a unique opportunity for the serious collector.

Each piece is crafted in solid wood and branded internally with Sottsass’ signature and edition number. Supplied in a numbered wooded crate, branded ‘Numa’ along with a certificate of authenticity and document outlining the development process.
