These storage jars were orginally designed by Ettore Sottsass (1917 - 2007) in 1994. The jars are colourful and evocative of Sottsass’s style, they are expressive presences that transform every domestic space. Designed with a cylindrical glass container and a beechwood lid to ensure an airtight seal. An iconic Twergi item since Sottsass can be considered as the mean designer of the Alessi Twergi products in the 80s and 90s. After acquiring one of the oldest woodcrafting companies of the Strona Valley (Battista Piazza 1865) in 1988, Alessi started a new brand called ''Twergi'' in 1989. Twergi means dwarf in the local dialect of Piemonte. It refers to a local dwarf that lives in the woods. For the first time Alessi was making products shaped out of wood. The decision to use materials other than steel turned out to be crucial for the growth of the company. Alessi Twergi therefore symbolizes not only design tradition and quality, but also a fine piece of entrepreneurship and vision. These jars are part of the Alessi 100 Values Collection, this is a special initiative that celebrates the values that define the identity and the practice of the hundred year “Dream Factory”. A collection of astonishing objects, coming from the Alessi Museum’s archives: objects never produced until now, unpublished versions, icons caught in their becoming. The jars are as new and never been used. Delivered with original packaging and documents.

A great and influential Maestro of Italian design, the energy of his language and the vitality of his colour and line contrast sharply with any intellectualism and rigidity. Sottsass worked for many prestigious brands like Bitossi, Kartell, Artemide and BD Barcelona. ‘’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’’
