1 and 2- Miniatures of Alessi classics
Spring-summer 08 collection
As a tribute to the great designers who created iconic items for the brand, Alessi is reproducing a series of eleven miniature sculptures, identical (and fully fonctional !) replicas of the best-sellers which spelt its success during the last sixty years. A loose selection includes the "Bombé" teapot by Carlo Alessi (1945), the "9093" whistling kettle by Michael Graves (1985), or the shell-shaped kettle by Philippe Starck, "Hot Berthaa" (1990).
