Alessi Twergi ES20 2 - Designer Nutcracker, in Beech Wood, with Colored Handle and Body, Glossy Lacquered Finish, Pink and Red

Alessi ES20 2 - From a play of volumes and contrasting colors takes shape the nutcracker according to Ettore Sottsass. A project where the juxtaposition of different geometries and colors tells an enduring story of lightness and profound elegance. A project where volumes and colors play together in a continuous dialogue between serious and playful. The time of opening nuts becomes a slow and shared ritual, sparking conversations with your dining companions or dedicating a special moment to yourself. Versatile and ideal for any type of shelled nuts, to rediscover all the functionality of an expressive design and its functional details. Clean the outer surface with a damp cloth or wood cleaner, drying immediately. Avoid washing by immersion, under water, and in the dishwasher or using abrasive cleaners that could damage the product's surface finish. Discover the contemporaneity of wood with the series of objects that Ettore Sottsass designed for Alessi starting from 1989. To the colors of that first edition are added surprising combinations that give us a new and profound immersion in the chromatic language of one of the greatest Italian designers.
