Tea or Coffee Service Menphis Bolidismo for Naj Oleari GHINI DESIGN '80 - Read carefully and check the entire photo gallery - Splendid tea and coffee service in the famous Memphis style, designed by the Italian architect and designer Massimo Iosa Ghini for Naj Oleari in the 1980s, in green and yellow colors. Never used and displayed only in a showroom in AS NEW condition. The inclusions highlighted in the photographs are not damages but signs of workmanship testifying to the artisanal manufacturing of the era.

Among his works, the creations for Moroso and for Memphis stand out for the bold use of color and fluid shapes, expression of a narrative and dynamic style. Architect Iosa Ghini designs with a language that fuses aesthetics, function, and futuristic vision, balancing art, industry, and sustainability.
