Large and distinctive brown wall unit with the typical style of Uten.silo by Dorothee Becker or Visiva Milano products, made in Italy in the late 60s / early 70s.

It is equipped with twelve storage compartments with four practical metal hooks. The compartments have different shapes and size, giving this wall unit excelletn convenience and a stunning visual impact. The curved shape and the awesome brown color give this wall unit an authentic space age touch.

This quirky piece evokes the style of the famous Utensilo, but also the product from Visiva Milano like the beautiful vertical coat hanger.

Likely produced in the Marche region, where the Guzzini factories and manufacturing partners were flourishing in the late 60s and 70s, this wall unit is a great example of the ‘L’Utopie du Tout Plastique’ era – when plastic was conceived as the new universal and liberating material.
