Description

Bitossi's Alzata centrepiece represents Italian designer and architect Ettore Sottsass at his purest: the experimental modern design of this bowl is characteristically adorned with a vibrant red surface. The inside of the bowl is left green – a contrasting hue, also typical of Sottsass's style!

The Alzata centrepiece is perfect for serving fruits, treats, and other small snacks at dinner parties, but its versatility also allows the bowl to shine as a striking decorative piece outside the kitchen, whether empty or filled with everyday treasures. Originally designed in 1962, the bowl is made of ceramic with an enamelled interior.

Ettore Sottsass

Ettore Sottsass (1917–2007) was an influential Italian designer and architect, who became famous for his colourful, modernist designs and experimental, radical attitude. He was one of the founders of the design group Memphis, and in 1980 he founded his own agency Sottsass Associati, which today has offices in London and Milan. Sottsass designed many products for the Italian design brand Alessi, and his works are included in the Alessi 100 Values Collection, which was launched to celebrate Alessi's centennial.
