Alessi

Michael Graves Kettle, Blue

The Alessi factory was founded on the shores of lake San Giulio, Northern Italy in 1921. The area had a long tradition of producing quality housewares, but over the following years Alessi set about redefining the standard. Today, the name Alessi has become synonymous with the highest quality of design and manufacture. Alessi products embody all that is great about imagination, invention, style and fun, but still maintain the core qualities of superb engineering and finish. Buying Alessi guarantees that you will have a product that will look great and function just as well. As is the Alessi tradition, products in this category are organised by their designer.
