Collo Alto Salad Set

from Alessi

collo alto salad set

Design Inga Sempé, 2015
18/10 mirror polished stainless steel
Made by Alessi

Collo-alto is the name chosen for this collection characterized by a long and narrow neck transitioning from the handle to the heads of the cutlery. The thinness imparts a sense of lightness to cutlery, which are made by contrasting straight and curved lines as well as by combining wide and narrow volumes.

The cutlery set Collo-alto, designed by Inga Sempé, is derived from the elegant spoon for serving risotto she designed. The project for the cutlery that makes up the service develops the basic features of that first spoon, distinctive for the contrast between curved and straight lines. The elongated and narrow shape of the segment that connects the handle with the active part of the cutlery gives the name Collo-alto (Italian for 'long neck') to this collection.

Collo-alto salad set includes two pieces and is offered in 18/10 mirror polished stainless steel.

Alessi was founded in 1921 by Giovanni Alessi to produce crafted metal products for eating and drinking. In 1935, Carlo Alessi, son of Giovanni, was named chief designer. In 1945, he ascended to chief executive and designed the coffee service Bombe, an industrial piece manufactured in four sizes. That same year Carlo's younger brother, Ettore Alessi, joined the company as a technician. By the 1980s, Alberto Alessi took over the management of Alessi and launched the Alessi company into the design decade through collaborations with designers such as Philippe Starck and his playful three-legged Juicy Salif citrus squeezer.
