Broken Bowl Broken Bowl is the first project for Alessi from German designer Maximilian Schmahl. Schmahl strives to create objects that people enjoy having as part of their daily life.

Created in two versions, polished stainless steel and steel-colored epoxy resin in black, Broken Bowl highlights Alessi’s extensive line of baskets and bowls and the stainless steel manufacturing techniques for which Alessi is known.

The high-quality glass filter is easy to clean and can serve up to six portions at a time. The patented valve system makes sure that your tea or coffee is taken out of the water in YOUR time, no more waiting next to the brewing tea or coffee to make sure that it will not get the bitter aftertaste. The easy to use filter comes with a stylish glass teapot and the timer runs on batteries. Arrosoir Tea Pot Set The inspiration for this set comes from the watering can, which can be held by the top and the side. For comfort, we like to have our hand above it when carrying teapots. For pouring tea while sitting, we like to have a handle at the side. Ideally, we want the handle to be both on top and at the side like a watering can. This is the way we have designed it. The ergonomic handle folds down to take less space in the cupboard. A stylish, easy clean, insulating jacket to ensure your tea stays hot longer will be forthcoming. MEDIA CONTACT: Mug Tree The inspiration of this mug tree comes from the Christmas tree. People will decorate their Christmas tree to light up the holiday spirit; place this mug tree in the kitchen and you will light up the atmosphere with it. The exquisite and classic shape reflect a wellshaped tree; with the right size, you can store up to six mugs to decorate it. Choose from a silver, golden or rose gold color hanger to reflect the sparkling Christmas decoration lights that decorate the environment. With a clean and elegant design, it can also organize bracelets and other small jewelry items without interruption.
