The 7 Best Early Amazon Prime Day Deals on Alessi Kitchenware | Eater

"A 104-year-old northern Italian design house founded over a century ago and still family-operated, with the founder’s grandson serving as president since the 1970s. It aims to reconcile whimsical, postmodern aesthetics with everyday functionality by commissioning hundreds of designers (including Ettore Sottsass of the Memphis group) to create personality-forward tablewares—examples range from an anthropomorphic corkscrew and a Bauhaus-style coffee pot to moka pots and postmodern sugar bowls and pepper mills. Its relatively affordable, playful pieces are prized as gift-ready items that can instantly enliven a kitchen, and many have recently appeared with substantial discounts during a major online retail sales event." - Francky Knapp
