starck max le chinois colander

Design Philippe Starck, 1990
Stainless steel, brass
Made in Italy by Alessi

An excellent example of Alessi's role as artistic mediator in the most turbulent areas of creative potential.... (this was Philippe Starck's response to Alessi's precise briefing for a stainless steel tray). The max le chinois is the most fantastic colander the world has ever seen... it also has a plastic insert to allow usage as a vase or bucket.

As one of the best-known contemporary designers in the world, Philippe Starck has placed honesty and integrity at the core of his designs producing quality products with longevity & durability.

The Max le Chinois colander features a mirror polished 18/10 stainless steel outside with a satin finish on the inside and feet in a brass casting.

Philippe Starck

Philippe Starck has a wide range of design and is very well known for consumer goods and interiors. He was educated in Paris at the École Camondo and founded his first design firm in 1968. Among Starck's famous designs include stylized toothbrushes (1989) and a sleek juicer dubbed the Juicy Salif created for Alessi in 1990. The Juicy Salif has become an affordable and popular cult item.
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.
