Alessi — Tripod | Key Design Trivet

Alessi Tripod - The Trivet That Becomes Tabletop Sculpture

Hung from a hook in the kitchen, it looks almost like a jewel waiting to be discovered. Placed on the table, it transforms into an elegant stand for pots, pans, and serving dishes. Tripod plays with this dual nature - a functional object and a display piece - and does so with disarming lightness.

Why we chose it for you

Founded in 1921 on Lake Orta, Alessi has built decades of history by transforming everyday objects into manifestos of applied design. Tripod is a precise example: designed by Gabriele Chiave with the LPWK studio, it starts with the most modest category of tableware - the trivet - and reinterprets it with formal rigor and high-quality materials. The contrast between the simplicity of its function and the sophistication of the object is exactly what makes this piece worthy of a place in a thoughtfully designed kitchen.

Ideal for

A gift for anyone who loves design-led cooking, an accessory for those who want every table detail to be consistent with the rest of the space, or simply an object to keep close at hand - between the hook and the serving surface - because in this case, its form more than justifies its presence.
