"The Plisse kettle's shape is defined by its folds, a technique that is quite old but still very much in use today. With the skillful and creative use of pleating, fashion designers shape fabrics and create clothes like sculptural works of art. Plisse was shaped starting from a folded sheet of paper, then developed and produced by Alessi as if it were a beautiful sartorial object. The folds five from to the shape, they structure it, because a form without folds is only a volume without form. The folds transform simple two-dimensional sheets into three-dimensional objects." -Michele De Lucchi
