- Lot Description
Europe, Italy, ca. 1960s CE. An incredible vintage espresso maker from Bialetti, a brand still used today to make coffee and espresso in many Italian households. The design is wonderfully postmodern, with the brass components elegantly displayed and complemented by the hard cream-white plastic handle at the top and side. The 1960s and 1970s were the pinnacle of Italian industrial design, and set the global agenda for stylishness. This beautiful example - which has all the necessary components to function aside from its power cord - will bring that style into your home. Perfect for the coffee lover in your life! Size: 7.65" W x 9.8" H (19.4 cm x 24.9 cm)
Alfonso Bialetti (1880-1970), an Italian engineer, is most famous for the Moka Express coffeemaker, which is not only stylish, but makes excellent coffee by passing boilng water pressurized by steam up through gruond coffee and into an upper chamber for pouring. If you have ever had coffee in an Italian home - or in many other parts of the world, especially Latin America - chances are, you have probably had coffee made by one of Bialetti's creations. His iconic design has been displayed in many industrial art and design museums, including the London Science Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Cooper-Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.
