Description from the seller

The designer colander signed by Philippe Starck for Alessi is called Max Le Chinois.
Presented in 1990, this object has become a true icon of postmodern design applied to kitchen tools.

Main Features

• Design and Form: It resembles a stylized head or an ironic helmet (hence the ironic name tied to Chinese headgear) supported on three legs.
• Materials: It is made of 18/10 stainless steel, with a mirror-polished finish on the outside and a brushed/satin finish on the inside. The three support feet are cast brass.
