The Calice vase is included in the "Kartell goes Sottsass - A Tribute to Memphis" collection, launched in homage to the movement founded by design guru Ettore Sottsass.
One of the most significant counter-forces to modernism in the history of design, Ettore Sottsass made monumental artistic contributions to every decade since 1945. His career produced a provocative body of work, including architecture, furniture, industrial design, glass, ceramics, painting, photography and a wealth of writing. With this work, he intellectually and aesthetically challenged the conventional wisdom of forms and proportions for over 65 years. Sottsass was continually driven by a personal search for a new language of modern design. His rigorous pursuits led to the creation of work lead by the pursuit of radical design, anti-design, post- modernist architecture, and the founding of Memphis in the early 1980s.
