Set consisting of a container and tray (which can act as a lid)

Born from the dialogue between Alberto Alessi and Italian designer Giulio Iacchetti, the new collection ''Il Tornitore Matto'' aims to highlight the ancient artisanal practice of metal turning which made the reputation of Omegna, a town in the north of Italy where the Alessi company was founded in 1921.

This creative project marks a return to the origins of the Alessi company, or rather to a material, metal, which has always been part of the brand's history. To create the first range of products, Alberto Alessi called on nine designers and artists, including Pierre Charpin, Iacchetti, Michele De Lucchi, Paolo Ulian and Naoto Fukasawa, challenging them to design and create a series of objects for home and table using old metal turning technology.
