Yashar, Nazanin — Nilufar: Why

Milan, Nilufar, 2003. Softcover. White wraps with color illustration and red and black lettering; French flaps; 197 pp. profusely illustrated. Text in Italian and English; with an essay by Ettorio Sottsass; a catalogue of historical design, mostly European, mostly furniture, and mostly 20th century. Stunning pieces. Would be as new if the back cover wasn't sliced 3/4 way down the middle.
