A showpiece that was never used. From a small production.
Provenance: from old stock supplies, Switzerland
The “Flower Edition” was Vorwerk’s first artistic theme collection. The subject chosen was “Phantasy of Flowers” in order to illustrate the company’s close connection to the history of aesthetic flooring design through floral ornamentation. Such internationally recognised artists as Jeff Koons, Philip Taaffe, Marcello Morandini, Rosemarie Trockel, and Robert Wilson were invited to supply their own interpretations of the subject, and their designs were realised in the form of limited series.
