Cylinda Line French Press
by Arne Jacobsen from stelton
cylinda line french press
Design Arne Jacobsen, 1967
Stainless steel, bakelite
Made by Stelton
Arne Jacobsen's press coffee maker in the Cylinda Line series is an elegant press coffee with thermal effect. The press coffee maker is double-walled to retain heat, so the taste and temperature is just right once the coffee has infused and the plunger has been pressed.
Made in stainless steel and with shapes based on standardized steel tubes, Cylinda Line offered a modern and functional alternative to traditional silverware when it was launched in 1967. Based on the high-precision aesthetic of industrial production, Arne Jacobsen developed an original service in stainless steel in partnership with the manufacturer Stelton. Ever since, the series has been widely recognized as an iconic industrial design.
Cylinda Line's taut, geometric expression is characteristic of Arne Jacobsen's work during the 1960s, when he moved away from the free, organic forms that characterize his furniture from the 1950s and instead embraced an expression based on repetition and basic geometric shapes. While few of the furniture designs Arne Jacobsen created based on these principles attained the status of design classics, Cylinda Line earned an instant place in design history. Immediately after the launch, the series was awarded the Danish Design Council's ID Prize, and it since went on to receive many international awards.
The coffee maker is made of stainless steel with a Bakelite handle and the design is minimalistic and timeless. The coffee maker has a capacity of 8 cups of coffee.
