Alessi — Anna G. Arborea AM01A/FM | Limited Edition Mendini corkscrew

There is something deeply ritualistic about opening a bottle of wine. Anna G. has always known this - ever since Alessandro Mendini designed her in 1994 with that barely perceptible smile, those arms raised in welcome. In this extraordinary incarnation called Arborea, the celebrated female figure becomes a collector's piece: the body is made of AlkiPaper®, an innovative material that carries the organic memory of paper and nature, while chromed zamak structures the details with artisanal precision. The pink PVD finish envelops the metal accessories in a soft, precious light; the key is in gold-colored PVD, and a delicate gold chain completes the composition like a jewel worn rather than displayed. Alessandro Mendini - theorist, designer, architect, and spirit of Italian Radical Design - conceived Anna G. as a manifesto of everyday poetics: a functional object that becomes a figure, a presence, a character. Fulvia Mendini, who contributed to the decoration of this edition, brings a personal painterly mark to the surface of Arborea, transforming each piece into a unique visual story. The series is limited to just 9 numbered pieces and a single artist's proof - figures that belong to the vocabulary of art, not industrial production. At Stilmobili, we chose Anna G. Arborea because it perfectly embodies what we seek when we talk about design as culture: an object that engages with the history of Italian design, carrying a name, a biography, and an emotion. It is the ideal gift for the discerning collector, for those who consider the table an aesthetic space, and for anyone who wants to own something unrepeatable. *Project notes:* height 24.5 cm, diameter 7 cm.
