Alessi MOKA Espresso Coffee Maker
Designed by architect David Chipperfield, Moka is an artist’s interpretation of a timeless icon of Italian culture, for those who don’t want to compromise on the unmistakable taste of coffee prepared with an espresso coffee maker.
An eleven-sided volume for a coffee maker with a familiar and, at the same time, innovative form: David Chipperfield introduces a series of details that make the Moka design new and even more functional, such as the flat lid on which to place the cups to be heated – allowing optimum enjoyment of the aroma and flavour of the drink – or the position of the knob which will enable you to raise the lid, using only one hand quickly.
Made in aluminium casting. Handle and knob in PA, grey—1 cup.
Suitable for Gas and Electric Cooktops.
