Konstantin Grcic frequently employs geometric forms and hard edges in his pieces, and the Ettore Door Stop is no exception. Made of sturdy lacquered cast iron, it is 18cm in height, 6.5 cm in width and 25cm in length. The stylised donkey shape is in the long tradition of picturesque antique door stops, and its splayed legs and angular ears are well proportioned for firmly holding doors and windows ajar. As well as being a practical item, the Ettore Door Stop also serves as an attractive, witty novelty piece to display around the home.
