Alessi — La Cintura di Orione | Design Lid by Sapper

Alessi "La Cintura di Orione" — The professional's precision, the cook's pleasure

There is a fine line between passionate cooking and professional cooking. Richard Sapper followed it with precision, designing "La Cintura di Orione" for those who refuse to settle in the kitchen: those who carefully choose every utensil, who understand the difference that properly distributed heat makes, who turn preparing a dish into a mindful act.

Why we chose it for you

Founded in 1921 on Lake Orta, Alessi has made Italian craftsmanship a universal language, bringing the same care devoted to designer objects into everyday domestic life. "La Cintura di Orione" stems from a precise vision: putting professional-quality tools in the hands of home gourmets. The project — designed by Richard Sapper — combines heavy-gauge copper, renowned for its ability to conduct and distribute heat evenly, with 18/10 stainless steel on the interior, ensuring hygiene and long-lasting durability. The result is a clad construction that makes no compromises.
