Description
Italian industrial design icon, the Grillo is the world’s first flip phone—paving the way for all future flip cell phones. Designed by Marco Zanuso and Richard Sapper for Siemens in collaboration with Italtel, it was awarded the prestigious Compasso d’Oro in 1967 and is now on display at New York’s MoMA and in major international museum collections. This original table version from the 60s perfectly captures the balance of style and functionality: with its compact lines, automatic opening, and space-saving footprint, it was ideal for modern homes and offices then—and remains a statement piece today. Its simple yet revolutionary design stands as an icon of 20th-century Italian engineering and innovation.
