Flatwig x Santa Margherita Wines: Amphora e Tappi

The project revisits amphora, the typical container used in antiquity to preserve and transport wine. For The Surreal Table, curated by Davide Fabio Colaci and exhibited at the 2018 Milan Design Week, Amphora loses its materiality and becomes transparent, revealing the preciousness of the contained wine. It’s a hybrid and ambiguous object in between an amphora and a decanter, which is combined with four different stoppers, Tappi, that accompany the ritual of drinking: the opening of the bottle, the act of pouring, the moment of decanting and the beginning of the social occasion.
