Red replica of #stamp's iconic tamtam. It will make its effect in the bathroom, or in a room to carry a lamp! Good general condition, some normal signs of wear. —- 💡 a little history. 1968 is the date on which it was created by henry massonnet, in the small village of nurieux-volognat. It is at the foot of lake nantua, not far from oyonnax. His story is not mundane. It all began in 1948 when henry massonnet took over the family comb factory, stamp. As he is a great fisherman, he will specialize in plastic fishing equipment. So he made seals, coolers and in 1968, he had the idea to make a light stool, plastic for fishermen, the famous tam-tam. Originally it was a stool for fishing. Yes, but as it was very convenient (we opened from above and hid things in it), and it was cheap (10 francs, 1.50 euro at the time), we started to find it everywhere. Sales really exploded when brigitte bardot was photographed sitting on it. From there, the tam-tam sold more than 12 million copies worldwide. Today, it has become a cult object, an icon of the 1970s. It can even be found at the museum of modern art in new york and the museum of deco arts in paris. Are there a lot of copies today, too. Yes, it is the ransom of success. Many are made in china, but the original, from the famous mould no. 169, is still made in nurieux by the stamp company. —- 📦 fast and neat shipping.
