Giglio continues the research of Benbecula and Ameland, Enzo Mari’s “experimental production” on letter openers, created with basic cutting and folding operations.
A process which takes a new look at the shaped profile, eliminating every sharp edge. The tape bends back onto itself to form a handle which makes it easy to use and more similar to a traditional letter opener.

Polished harmonic steel

Size: L 28 cm, H 9 cm, W 3 cm
