The Marquina oil company is an example that big problems require simple solutions. A transparent, stable and precise product that contains the essence of the best design.
“The shape of the oil cans at that time clearly indicated what service was expected of them, but their operation left something to be desired. This last consideration led me to design an oil can that, in addition to a dignified presence, “explained” its function by itself and fulfilled it, without inconvenience.”

“With the same humility of a handmade drawing, in 1961 our father and grandfather designed this oil bottle. Now nanimarquina publishes it, guaranteeing its authenticity.”

This iconic piece is probably one of the most copied designs in the world. Nanimarquina now publishes it guaranteeing its authenticity respecting the proportions of the original design, as well as including the author's signature on its base.
