A Rare Bit O’Swag:
Fedrigoni Vespa Paper Sculpture

Posted on by

Fedrigoni paper model Vespa Scooter

Happy New Year ScooterSwaggers!

Fedrigoni is an Italian paper manufacturer with over a century of history. To celebrate an exhibition in their London showroom in 2010, graphic artist Laura Quatrill made several models of classic Italian design. These included the Sapper Alessi kettle, the Olivetti typewriter and of course the Piaggio Vespa. The models were made out of Fedrigoni papers and were mailed to customers flat and unconstructed to invite customers to the exhibit.

Thanks to Daniel S. for this find.
