Alessi — Alessandro M | Red/White Mendini Corkscrew

Alessandro M — The Corkscrew That Is a Work of Art to Hold

There is something unusual about opening a bottle with Alessandro M: that fixed smile, that stylized figure rotating between your fingers, transforms an everyday gesture into a small moment of lightness. Designed by Alessandro Mendini as a self-portrait, this corkscrew brings to the table the same sophisticated irony that has run through his entire design work.

Why we chose it for you

Alessi was founded in 1921 on the shores of Lake Orta and has collaborated for decades with the biggest names in international design, Alessandro Mendini above all. Alessandro M is one of those pieces in which function and storytelling come together without compromise: it is a precise tool, an object to display, and a gift that will not be forgotten. The fact that Mendini chose to portray himself makes each piece something more than a kitchen accessory.
