Set of 4 Glass Cups Designed by George Sowden for Bodum 1980s
These glass cups with distinctive stainless steel holders were designed by British designer George Sowden for Bodum around 1987. They represent the Memphis Design movement of the 1980s, characterized by geometric patterns, bold colors, and a postmodern aesthetic that challenged conventional design principles. These cups are highly valued by collectors of Memphis Design and 1980s postmodern design objects. The combination of industrial materials with playful, geometric patterns makes them both functional items and representative art pieces of an influential design movement. Collectors of designer kitchenware and those interested in the intersection of art and everyday objects particularly appreciate these pieces for their historical significance and distinctive aesthetic.
