AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

La Conica, a timeless icon and architect Aldo Rossi’s first espresso coffee maker design, was born from a play of simple geometric shapes that form a miniature tabletop architecture, with a concise and elegant style.
The coffee maker has a stainless-steel body and a copper base: a distinctive object with essential geometric lines that give rise to a functional tool for preparing and serving coffee.

“Among other containers and household appliances, the coffee maker is particularly suited to various transformations and analogies with buildings and architectural forms. Especially with domes, bell towers and minarets, it is almost never free from a certain oriental—or, more specifically, eighteenth-century Turkish—air or style. There is no doubt that its presence in interior compositions or still lifes lends the image a solidity that brings the composition closer to the landscape, and particularly to the urban landscape, where towers, domes and various buildings predominate.” (Aldo Rossi)

Kept in perfect condition on display, like new, as shown in the photos.
The product will be carefully packaged and shipped within 48 hours with a tracking number.
