Officina Alessi - Mia Carafe

The straight linen Mia Carafe from Officina Alessi follows a design from the Swiss architect Mario Botta.

The Officina Alessi collection includes the most sophisticated, through thought, experimental and innovative products from Alessi. The Mia Carafe appears in a simple design with straight and sterile lines. The object reminds us that Mario Botta is a trained architect because of its architectural, tubelike form.

The qualities of the designer and his sophisticated approach makes the Mia Carafe an exceptional design object that overcomes the limits of other carafe designs and builds a bridge to architecture with sculptural forms.

Mia is suitable for water as well as for wine and other drinks. The simple but by no means inconspicuous design of the Mia Carafe can be integrated on every table and spreads elegance and stile.

A larger version of the Mia Carafe with the name Tua is also available on demand, this one has a capacity of 100 cl.
