Nanny Still 'Rondo' Dish
A colourful 'Rondo' dish designed by Nanny Still for Riihimäen Lasi Oy, Finland, 1965.
Nanny Still's renowned works during the 1960's are distinguished by their strong colour and commanding silhouettes. This vibrant blue 'Rondo' dish exemplifies Still's signature style with the dramatically flared rim & sturdy cylindrical clear glass foot. Whilst the object's form is bold & assertive, the design also exhibits the delicate embellishments commonly found in Still's creations. Notably, the base of the object features concentric rings that beautifully reflect the blue tones present in the bowl, adding an exquisite touch to the overall design.
The dish is not only an eye-catching decorative accent for any room, but can also be used, as intended, as a trivet, candle holder, or as a stylish vessel for serving culinary delights. With its multifunctional nature and undeniable elegance, this practical glass dish seamlessly combines form with function and embodies the refined artistry of Nanny Still's influential work.
