Alessi ESI16SET Mediterraneo Salad Set
"She symbolises femininity, grace, love. An alchemic symbol of universal harmony: flower of Venus, "Belt of Roses", an image of regeneration. Loved and revered since ancient times, here she is transformed into a delicate bowl, available in steel or natural rose pink" ---?---"The first project inspired by coral came from the workshop "the lightness of steel", from the need to take material away from an object, remove its edges so that it can be impeccably (essentially) Nature. Coral was once commonly found throughout the Mediterranean, from where it was exported worldwide in exchange for spices and perfumes. The kura halos, (human form) often symbolised goddesses, fertility, lunar phases and tides. Use of the symbol for apotropaic purposes (the power to ward off bad luck) made it identifiable with vital energy."Laura Polinoro
