The “Camicia” vase, designed by Enzo Mari for Danese in the 1960s, clearly embodies the designer’s pursuit of functional rigor and formal reduction.

The satin-finished metal cylinder partially envelops the glass container, revealing it through a vertical opening that becomes the defining feature of the piece. This simple yet radical gesture transforms an everyday object into a sculptural presence, where solids and voids exist in measured balance.

Mari’s approach removes the superfluous, entrusting the object’s identity to geometric purity and industrial precision. The result is a vase that still communicates an undiminished sense of modernity, fully aligned with the design vision of Milanese manufacturer Danese.

A classic of post-war Italian design, conceived to endure without losing relevance.
