This Alessi Twergi bowl, designed by the renowned Italian architect and designer Ettore Sottsass, is a bowl from the ALESSI100 Values Collection, which was launched to celebrate 100 years of Alessi's innovative design legacy back in 2021. The Twergi bowl itself, however, was originally designed by Sottsass in 1990, showcasing his forward-thinking approach to design and his ability to create enduring pieces that transcend time. With its majestic design, this Alessi Twergi bowl resembles a small monument that contributes to creating an unexpected domestic landscape. This piece is among the most significant works designed by Sottsass for Alessi. While its function is simple, the effect it creates is extremely powerful. The bowl is both a fascinating object to admire and practical to use. Sottsass's design for this Alessi Twergi bowl features a structure that he often favored: the overlapping of volumes and shapes of different sizes that rise upwards, reminiscent of a tree with generous branches and firmly planted roots. This incisive and powerful design makes the bowl a small work of art capable of standing out in any domestic space. Sottsass's intention with this Alessi Twergi bowl was to challenge the traditional notion of a functional object by transforming it into a work of art. He believed that everyday items should not only serve their practical purpose but should also evoke emotions and stimulate the senses. The Twergi bowl achieves this through its unconventional form and striking color, inviting users to interact with it in a playful and creative manner. This Alessi Twergi bowl has become an iconic piece within Alessi's product lineup, known for its artistic and sculptural qualities. The bowl's enduring popularity is a testament to Sottsass's vision and his ability to create objects that transcend their utilitarian function and become iconic symbols of design. This bowl continues to inspire and captivate design enthusiasts, collectors, and art lovers alike. Its combination of form, color, and artistic expression showcases the innovative and boundary-pushing approach that Sottsass brought to his work, making it a timeless piece that will continue to be cherished and celebrated for years to come. This Alessi Twergi bowl is in new and unused condition. Delivered with original packaging. Please note that the wood patterns depicted in the photo may differ from the actual bowl. As wood is a natural material, each piece may have unique variations in grain and texture, making each Twergi bowl truly one-of-a-kind. The actual bowl you receive may exhibit slightly different wood patterns compared to the representation in the photo. About Alessi Twergi: This Twergi bowl is part of Alessi's foray into woodcrafting, which began after the acquisition of the renowned woodcrafting company Battista Piazza 1865 in the Strona Valley in 1988. In 1989, Alessi launched a new brand called "Twergi," named after the local dialect word for dwarf in Piemonte. The name pays homage to a local dwarf that supposedly inhabits the woods. The decision to explore materials beyond steel was crucial for Alessi's growth, and the introduction of wood products marked a significant milestone for the company. ‘’Keywords: Picasso, Tiffany & Co, Van Gogh, Yves Saint Laurent, Omega, Dali, Prada, Burberry, Matisse, Rolls-Royce, Michael Kors, Ralph Laurenc, Monet, McQueen, Mercedes-Benz, Calvin Klein, Kate Spade, Givenchy, David Hockney, Tom Ford, Versace, Furstenberg, BMW, Gauguin, Hilfiger, Calder, Giacometti, Balmain, Lichtenstein, Louis C.K., Wang, Piaget, Chagall, Valentino, Keeffe, Ferragamo, McCartney, Max Ernst, Miyake, Hugo Boss, Jasper Johns, Fendi, Karl Lagerfeld, Richard Serra, Man Ray, Helmut Lang, Chloé, Frank Stella, Andy Warhol, Adidas, Alessi, André Saraiva, Armani, Alvar Aalto, Alexander Girard, Aldo Bakker, Apple, Aldo Rossi, Artimide, Anish Kapoor, Artek, Ai Weiwei, Angelo Mangiorotti, Audemars Piquet, Achille Castiglioni, Arne Jacobsen, Agne Jacobsen, Ben Eine, B&B Italia, Basquiat, Blek Le Rat, Bertjan Pot, Brusk, Boud Ceysens, Banksy, Bearbrick, Bentley, Bang Olufsen, Balenciaga, Bitossi, Borek Sipek, Bauhaus, Baccarat, Braun, Breitling, Cappellini C215, Cartier, Charlotte Perriand, Chanel, Christien Meindertsma, Chopard, Ceramic, Case Studyo, Cavalli, Christo, Danese Milano, Damien Hirst, Dface, Dior, De Pas, Dollar, D'Urbino, Daniel Arsham, Driade, Diamond, Disney, Dran , Dieter Rams, Eero Saarinen, Ettore Sottsass, Enzo Mari, Euro, Eero Earnio, Ekstrom, Ed Rusha, Eames, Faile, Ferm, Ferrari, Futura, Foscarini, Fin Dac, Friso Kramer, Flos, Fake, Frank Gehry, Gold, Gucci, Gammelgaard, Gio Ponti, Gispen, Gabbianelli, George Nelson, Hayden Kays, Harry Bertoia, Hans-agne Jakobsson, Hermes, Herman Miller, HAY, Hot Wheels, Hockney, Hella Jongerius, Ikea, Ittala, Isamu Noguchi, Imbue, Irma Boom, Invader, James Bond, Jeff Aerosol, Jean Prouve, JR, Jason Freeny, Jordan, Jørgensen, JonOne, Jeff Koons, Kembo, Kai Kristiansen, Knoll, Klibansky, Kartell, Keith Haring, Konstantin Grcic, Lego , Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Leica, Liechtenstein, Louis Poulsen, Le Corbusier, Lagasse, Louis Vuitton, Lomazzi, Ligne Blanche, Martin Watson, Mr Brainwash, KAWS, Mondriaan, Yayoi Kusama, Minotti, Marc Newson, Memphis Milano, Magis, Martiri, Magis, Maarten Van Severen, Maarten Baas, Vitra, Michele De Lucchi, Mtn, Medicom, Murakami, Yoshitomo Nara, Maurizio Cattelan, Makkink & Bey, Mr Doodle, Miss Tic, Matteo Thun, Modern, Munday, Marcantoni, Maurizio Cattelan, Montblanc, Moooi, Marcel Wanders, Michele De Lucchi, Natuzzi, Nathalie Du Pasquier, Nike, Nintendo, Obey Giant, Off White, Ottmar Hörl, Yoshitomo Nara, Orlinski, Parra, Paul Insect, Porsche, Pejac, Perrotin, Pentax, Pierre Giraudon, Pierre Jeanneret, Popart, Pokemon, Poul Henningsen, Pantone , Philippe Starck, PichiAvo, Pez, Patek Phillipe, Rem Koolhaas, Rietveld, Rolex, Raak, Roche Bobois, Richard Hutten, Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, Sabine Marcelis, Sandra Chevrier, Shepard Fairey, Supreme, Snik, Space Age, Stik, Seen , Seletti, Seth, Stilnovo, Snarkitecture, Studio Job, Steve Lazarides, Spectrum, Scholten & Baijings, Swarovski, Thonet, Tichelaar, Tintin, Tracey Emin, Verner Panton, USM Haller, Virgil Abloh, Vhils, Vico Magistretti, Webe, Ecstasy, Joe Colombo’’
