4 Memphis Glasses by Nathalie du Pasquier for Ritzenhoff, Germany
$400.00
Set of four Memphis glasses, each adorned with a unique, abstract design by Nathalie du Pasquier for Ritzenhoff. They feature a distinctive style characterized by bold colors and geometric patterns. The central theme appears to be a stylized representation of cows in a pasture, with blue skies and red flowing shapes that may suggest clouds or perhaps sunsets. The colors are vibrant, with a predominance of blues, reds, yellows, and black shapes that could represent the cows. Each glass also has vertical elements in yellow. The bottom of the glasses features a wavy pattern, which adds to the playful, dynamic design.
