Vintage Jewels

Vintage Jewels in stackable dinnerware from the Vignelli Center for Design Studies⁠. ♥️🍽️⁠
⁠
"This stacking melamine dinnerware was originally designed in Italy in 1964 and won the Compasso D’oro award. But the manufacturer went out of business and the molds lay dormant for a few years. But Heller brought them to the United States and they eventually created them in rainbow colors.⁠
⁠
'The size of the plates, their edge wall concept, their stackability, and the brilliant rainbow colors quickly captured the consumers’ attention and the product became a symbol of contemporary houseware.' design: #Vignelli (1981)." - @thecolorassociation⁠
