Alessi – Anna G. Corkscrew Black

Since 1921, Italian design company Alessi has stood out for the high
quality of its products. Almost a century of history, and the brand
continues to be synonymous with unique household items that balance
Alessi’s love for culture, aesthetic and functional quality with modern
production methods.

Alessi also remain committed to a design approach that collectively
brings together artistic expression and industry; they collaborate with
various artists and designers from all over the world to create a huge
range of iconic, whimsical pieces that belong in both a design museum and your home!

Alessandro Mendini is an architect, artist and designer who joined the Alchimia Studio in 1979, where he upset functionalist designers by designing objects for sheer artistic pleasure and by referring to popular culture as “kitsch”. His Anna G. icon, with her ever-smiling face and short bob, graces many of Alessi’s most beloved products.

Rumour has it that Alessandro Mendini based the character on one of his ex-girlfriends…but whoever Anna is, you’ll never grow tired of seeing her friendly face smile around your kitchen on this corkscrew – in fact, we hear that her grin is rather contagious. This gorgeous corkscrew is made from chrome-plated zamak and colourful polyamide, which will suit any modern home, so be sure to save a place at your next dinner party for Anna G.
