Alessi - Michael Graves - Coffee set (2) - Glass, Steel

Alessi Espresso Cups – Design by Michael Graves – Blue & Red Accents This elegant set of espresso cups was designed by the renowned American architect and designer Michael Graves for Alessi. Featuring the same iconic color scheme as his famous 9093 kettle — sky blue and brick red — these cups are a playful yet refined example of Graves’ distinctive postmodern style. The cups combine clean, architectural lines with soft curves and colorful accents, making them both functional and visually striking. Crafted from fine porcelain with vividly colored handles and coordinating saucers, they are a delightful way to bring design history into your everyday rituals. Espresso kopje: Hoogte: 6cm Diameter van 5,8 cm Inhoud van 12 cl. Condition: in good condition - see pictures - some signs of use, but minimal About the Designer – Michael Graves (1934–2015) Michael Graves was one of the leading figures of postmodern architecture and product design. His collaboration with Alessi in the 1980s brought a fresh, whimsical sensibility to household objects, blending classical references with modern materials and bold colors. Graves believed good design should be accessible and uplifting — a philosophy clearly embodied in his enduring work for Alessi, including the beloved 9093 kettle and these beautifully crafted espresso cups.
