Alessi — Dressed MW52/3 | Three-tier stand in stainless steel

There is something deliberately theatrical about the Dressed tiered stand: three levels rising in 18/10 stainless steel, each adorned with a raised decoration reminiscent of lace, textile textures, and the tactile memory of embroidery. Holding one of its tiers means perceiving the contrast between the coolness of metal and the softness evoked by the ornament - a paradox found only in truly successful objects. With its 35-centimeter diameter and 31-centimeter height, the composition asserts itself on the table without overwhelming its proportions: it is a presence, not an obstruction. Dressed was created by Marcel Wanders, one of the most visionary Dutch designers of his generation, who has always been interested in the tension between decoration and function, nostalgia and contemporaneity. Wanders brings his unmistakable signature to Alessi: objects that seem to recall something - a nineteenth-century boudoir, a starched linen tablecloth - yet feel entirely current. The Dressed collection is among his most accomplished collaborations with the Crusinallo manufacturer, capable of translating into worked metal what elsewhere would exist only in fabric or ceramic. We at Stilmobili chose this tiered stand because it interprets, with rare elegance, the desire for a table that is also a story. It is designed for those who consider setting the table an act of aesthetic care, not a routine: those who love entertaining, and those who want fruit or desserts to have their own stage. It pairs naturally with both a contemporary table setting and tableware with a more classic character. Design notes: 18/10 stainless steel, three-tier structure with overlapping elements, raised decoration on each tier. Diameter 35 cm, height 31 cm. Alessi autumn/winter collection.
