An iconic and popular gift from Alessi -
The Anna G corkscrew is a great example of how to playfully anthropomorphise a functional household tool and create a design icon in the process. Alessandro Mendini executed such a skillful job that the corkscrew is instantly recognizable as a piece of Alessi design and has been a fantastic sales success for the company.
Apparently, it was Alberto Alessi who noticed that the design looked a lot like one of Mendini's friends, the designer Anna Gili.
Anna Gili - the original Anna G?
This gift set including includes an 'Anna G.' corkscrew and an 'Anna Stop 2' wine bottle stopper. The set is completed with a 'Noé' drop ring and a bottle coaster, both made of high-quality 18/10 stainless steel.
Designed by Alessandro Mendini and first produced in 1994, the 'Anna G.' corkscrew is a tongue-in-cheek homage to a real woman. Her smiling, captivating face is one of Alessi's most recognised products and has given rise to a family of objects for the table and kitchen in a wide range of materials. This gift set comes in an attractive gift box.
Playful and practical, Anna G is the perfect house guest...
