Memphis Cucumber vase

Memphis Cucumber is a ceramic vase designed by Martine Bedin in 1985 for Memphis Milano, one of the most iconic objects of the postmodern movement. Its silhouette is defined by a balance of soft, asymmetrical lines that give shape to a round, almost organic form reminiscent of a cucumber, reinterpreted in an artistic and sculptural key. The white surface is animated by sinuous blue patterns that evoke movement and dynamism, while a bright yellow ring runs across the upper section in stark contrast to the cylindrical black base on which the vase rests with solidity. The bold colour palette and the quality of the ceramic make this piece a visually striking object with undeniable collectible value.

Standing at 300 mm in height, the Cucumber vase lends itself to display as a standalone decorative element, bringing personality and character to a living room or bedroom setting. Ideal for those who wish to introduce a touch of design history and visual culture into their interiors, it stands as a true work of applied art, faithful to the transgressive and colourful spirit that made Memphis Milano celebrated worldwide.
