Alessi Alessandro M Queens Guard Corkscrew
New limited edition version of “Alessandro M” designed by Alessandro Mendini. To celebrate this exciting year for the UK, Alessi have released a limited edition Alessandro M corkscrew. To commemorate Queen Elizabeth II diamond jubilee and the 2012 London Olympics Alessandro Mendini has designed a 'Queen's Guard'.
Hand decorated and inscribed underneath with the limited edition number this corkscrew is only released in limited numbers and is sure to be highly sought after. It comes complete with a synthetic bearskin.
Each year Alessandro politely states that this is the last time he’s going to offer the special limited production versions of “Alessandro M.” All limited edition corkscrews are real characters in the Alessi' dream factory and still have all the functional qualities of Corkscrews. This is Mendini’s umpteenth provocation of the “Form follows function” theory with object-creations that progressively move towards the expressivity of “Figures”. They are so much fun that it’s likely that the series will continue for some time…Limited edition pieces that are hand decorated, highly collectable and make wonderful gifts. The design for these products is changed on a yearly basis making them quite unique and desirable. The small smiling face has became in the years an icon, and has generated a big number of object for the kitchen and the table.
