Description: Avedis Baghsarian Saturn Satellite Vase Anodized Aluminum Disks Reconfigurable “After 30 years as a respected and eminent photographer, Avedis found photography no longer challenging and in the early 1990s decided to go back to his original studies and began designing and producing a collection of tabletop accessories. He focused his energies on creating original yet functional designs emphasizing compositions that featured interlocking forms for practical pieces such as vases, candle holders and salt-and-pepper shakers, among other items. In 1994, the collection won the prestigious International Design Magazine Award. Those objects were introduced in New York’s distinguished stores such as Bergdorf Goodman, Barneys and 28 leading museum stores, including New York’s Guggenheim, San Francisco MOMA, Museum of Contemporary Arts in Chicago, the Los Angeles Museum of Arts and San Diego Museum of Arts as well as the International Museum of Jerusalem in Israel and Kobi in Japan.” – excerpted from Avedis Baghsarian’s bio. on his site. The work of Avedis has been featured in many prestigious design and lifestyle publications. I’ve seen this referred to as both Saturn and Satellite. There were other models made so not sure exactly which this one is. The container is composed of a lift up lid, screw off rim and various sized disks with spacer rings between. It's in very nice pre-owned condition with no significant issues to note. May show some normal signs of use/handling but nothing offensive. No noticeable dings, bends etc, but there are signs of very small and almost unnoticeable scratches on the lid. It could use a proper dusting or cleaning of the disks. This truly is what I would consider to be in Very Good Used condition. If not for the tiny scratches, I would say it is in Excellent Used Condition. Marked C in circle Avedis / Made in USA label / Stamped Pat # 5.240.752 on underside. Measures approximately 4 1/4” high and approximately 7” wide as configured. It will weigh about 3 - 4lbs packed safely. This has been stored in a pet and smoke free home. Please feel free to ask any questions and thank you for shopping!
