The Bottle stopper designed by Giulio Iacchetti is suitable for both wine and champagne bottles. It's produced in polished steel and has a rubber inner section to close the cap with a pressure and expansion mechanism. The stopper is easy to use, insert just by pressing and turning clockwise to fit the neck of the bottle. The shape of the object is reminiscent of a classic cork, which hermetically seals champagne bottles and their contents.

1 Pcs/Pack — Folding cake stand in 18/10 stainless steel with decoration.Fatman was designed by Marcel Wanders who has focused his attention on the object’s decoration, creating a kind of colourful suit in which to dress the cake stand. This aspect makes the object versatile: closed, it is a table sculpture; open it becomes a multi-tier cake stand for table service. In this sense it is not just a folding object, because when you close it up it doesn’t simply stop being a container, it transforms into a beautiful object to be admired. The colourful decoration designed by Wanders, combined with the round shape, tends to emphasise the formal perception of the object. Fatman, as the name suggests, presents the features of a man with a robust body, dressed in an outfit reminiscent of a clown.

For those who love their breakfast (and not only), Marcel Wanders has created a series of additional articles for the “Dressed” service. This big collection reveals one of the typical traits of Wanders’ language, where ancient shapes and style features are echoed in a totally contemporary interpretation.

1 Pcs/Pack — Corkscrew in thermoplastic resin, black and chrome-plated zamak.

Corkscrew in PA, black and chrome-plated zamak. A best seller since it was first produced in 1994, the Anna G. corkscrew is a tongue-in-cheek homage to a real woman. Her smiling face has become something of a cult figure over the years, giving birth (so to speak) to a rich family of objects for the table and kitchen in a wide range of materials.

Pill box in 18/10 stainless steel mirror polished. The original pill box shaped like a horse chestnut was designed by Lorenza Bozzoli and Gabriele Chiave. It's included in the Objects-Bijoux collection. The two designers were influenced by the popular belief according which, keeping a horse chestnut in your pocket is supposed to ward off colds. The flat lid rotates on a little pivot, allowing the box to be closed with just one hand.

Ice tub in 18/10 stainless steel mirror polished.There are several gestures we make when we hold a bottle of wine: store, open, pour, hold and cool. Giulio Iacchetti is the designer of a unique collection of objects, the Noè series, one object for each gesture. Thanks to its ample proportions and the series of compartments dotted along its upper edge, the Noè wine cooler can hold up to five bottles of wine or two magnums. Although this kind of wine cooler was already used in the Renaissance (we can see something similar in the paintings of the time) it is inspired by the Vasque of the French wine tradition.

Corkscrew in PA and chrome-plated zamak. A "creature-object", this is Mendini's umpteenth exploration of the theory that "form follows function". It might also be his answer to the success of the "Anna G." woman-corkscrew.
