Ettore Sottsass (1917–2007) is most often associated with his iconic red Olivetti Valentine typewriter from the 1960s and the Postmodern Milan-based Memphis Group he founded in the 1980s. The Fischietto vase was designed by Ettore Sottsass in 1968 and reissued by Habitat in 2000 in two sizes in sky blue with navy trim. This is the tall version.
