This Windsor ice bucket belongs to the Formes Nouvelles collection, created by Lino Sabattini in 1961. Lino Sabattini was a self-taught Italian silversmith and designer from Corrège. In 1956, his creations were exhibited in Paris by Gio Ponti and attracted international attention. He then became one of the iconic figures of the Christofle design office and formed a close and iconic partnership with Gio Ponti. This champagne bucket is characterized by the purity and simplicity of its form, emblematic of mid-20th century Italian art.
