A di Alessi - Mr Chin

A di Alessi Mr Chin Egg cup with salt castor and spoon

Interesting egg cup that comes with it's own salt castor and spoon! A brilliant idea and a great thing to own.

The National Palace Museum of Taiwan can be considered to be the 'Louvre of the Orient' for the richness and scope of its collection of Antiquities and paintings. The collaboration between Alessi and the Museum grew out of the Museum's wish to open itself to the international scene and encourage greater awareness of Chinese history and culture in the West. Stefano Giovannoni was asked to design a mascot for the new Museum of the 21st Century and from this was born the 'Family of Mr Chin', separately moulded they are assembled like toy soldiers giving greater articulation.
