Designed by Mathieu MategotRead Bio
Originally designed in 1953, Mathieu Mategot created the Mategot Bowl by combining a traditional silhouette with modern materials. The perforated metal, known as Rigetulle, is pleated and arranged around a circular frame for a light and elegant expression. The Mategot Bowl will elevate any space as both a functional object and artfully designed accent piece.
Specification Sheet / Technical Files
Mathieu Matgot (1910-2001) was a self-taught Hungarian designer who settled in Paris after travelling, studying, and gaining experience in set design, window dressing, fashion, and tapestry.
He volunteered for the French army during the Second World War but was captured by the Germans and put to work in a mechanical accessories plant. It was here that he recognized the potential for perforated sheet metal to lend transparency, weightlessness and modernity to new forms. After the war, he developed Rigitulle his take on the material and his own folding, shaping, and bending technique.
