Conceived and painted by Enzo Benedetto, this 1934 unique tea set for four, which is presented for the first time in a limited edition, incorporates the aesthetics of Futuristic aeropainting. It consists of a teapot, sugar bowl, and milk jug, as well as four cups with four saucers. Dubbed “Recordˮ by F.T. Marinetti, Benedetto joined the Movement in 1923. At the time, he was one of the few Futurists who actually flew. He had joined the Manifesto of Aeropainting in 1931.
Limited and numbered edition replica, dedicated packaging, accompanied by a book of over 200 pages that includes testimonies, biography, bibliography, documents, citations and critical judgments in Italian and English.
