GINKGO 2017

Designers: Giulio Lacchetti, Studio Giulio Lacchetti, Milan (MI), Italy
Manufacturer: Dnd / FMN Martinelli SpA., Casto (BS), Italy

A form based on nature, the special, unique shape of a Ginkgo leaf, becomes the structure and decoration of a handle that is made in two different versions.

The fan-like geometry of the leaves of the Ginkgo tree is imprinted in the frontal view of the object and generates a shaping of the stem that makes the handle forcefully materic, sculptural, appealing to the grip.

Ginkgo Biloba, the version of the Ginkgo handle with the decorative surface engraving, is a further metaphorical reminder of the veins of the leaf: the result is a precious object capable of adding nobility to an everyday domestic presence.
