9090/6 100 Espresso coffee maker by Richard Sapper manico forato, orange 6 cup
Espresso coffee maker in 18/10 stainless steel. Magnetic steel bottom suitable for induction cooking. 6 cups.
The Alessi Values Collection was launched to celebrate the centennial of the famous Italian design house. The sixth part of the collection is called Research Lab, which refers to the more experimental side of industrial design – Alessi is like a research center where designers can do their experiments. One of these experiments is a version of Sapper’s iconic espresso maker with an orange-red, perforated handle that facilitates heat dispersion. Sapper chose the striking colour to underline the functionality of the handle.
The 9090 isn't just the first espresso coffee maker in Alessi's history: it was also Alessi's first object for the kitchen after the 1930s, the first of Alessi's many Compasso d'Oro awards (1979), Alessi's first object to be inducted into the Permanent Design Collection at the New York MOMA, and of course it's the best-loved Alessi coffee maker bar none, as well as Alessi's first "amphibious object", i.e. it is for kitchen use, but with its high design quality it can also be brought directly to the table.
