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 version of the classic design is made from chrome plated zamak (a reassuringly heavy and robust metal alloy). It is very efficient and easy to use and always popular as a gift. The rolled steel screw is PTFE treated for easier insertion into the cork and those long arms provide extra leverage.
Playful and practical, Anna G is the perfect house guest...
