Designed by Giulio Iacchetti together with mixologist Oscar Quagliarini<\/strong>, Alessi’s The Tending Box collection reinterprets the traditional tools used to prepare cocktails, resulting in objects that combine aesthetics and functionality.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Form & Function of Cocktail Preparation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“The project moves within three guidelines, namely translating Oscar’s requests into a coherent form, exploring the archetype and its reinterpretation, and finally studying typologies to innovate, albeit with small shifts forward, the set of tools for cocktail preparation<\/strong>,” explains Giulio Iacchetti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a balanced synthesis of form and function<\/strong>, the most classic tools of the trade are reinterpreted – cocktail<\/a> stirrer, mixing glass, bar strainer, cocktail scoop, mixing spoon, and bar whisk all take on new technical features and refined aesthetic details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The Tending Box” meets the needs of professionals and novices alike<\/strong> in a line that combines styling with high performance. The “Parisienne” cocktail stirrer doesn’t slip out of hand, the tumbler with its weighted base facilitates stirring, and the mixing spoon follows the mixologist’s movements elegantly, sinuously, and silently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Quadri Combo Jigger scoop synthesizes in a single object all the versatility of this must-have accessory, the “Baton lel\u00e8” whisk, with tips of different lengths, recreates the naturalness of the original tool, yet it is perhaps the apparent simplicity of the jigger that encapsulates the true complexity of the design with its double spring that allows the bartender to choose the optimal filtration quality to fully enhance the cocktail<\/strong>,” specifies Oscar Quagliarini.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n
