Kristian Vedel melamine pepper grinder

Height 10 cm.

The pepper mill is in good functional condition.

Kristian Vedel designed a series of stackable plates and bowls in 1955 for Torben Ørskov's shop "Form&Farver". This is the series that this one belongs to.

In 1961, this series, made of melamine, won a gold medal at La Triennale di Milano. The series was discontinued around 1972, in connection with the oil crisis, as melamine is extracted from crude oil and could no longer be produced.
