Designer: Mathieu Matégot in 1953 Concept: The elegant flower pot from GUBI was designed in 1953 by Mathieu Matégot in his heyday. The jar is beautifully and gracefully designed from perforated metal sheets, with a technique called Rigitulle and made into a refined and elegant jar that combines design, art and technique. By combining several sizes and colors, an artistic grace can be created in the living room, garden or on the balcony. For the flower pot, an inner jar in glass is included so that the water does not seep through. The flower pot is part of the popular Matégot series which also consists of a coat rack, a bowl and a trolley of the same style. Mathieu Matégot (1910 - 2001) was an independent and self-taught Hungarian designer, architect and artist. He lived most of his life in his beloved Paris where he settled in 1931, after graduating from the Hungarian University of Art and Design in Budapest. In 1939, Matégot volunteered for the Finnish army, but was captured in Germany until he fled in 1944. The war period played a career-important role for Martégot, as he became acquainted with the innovative material and technique Rigitulle, which today characterizes his style.
