Tenth project of the Alessi 100 Values ??Collection, the nutcracker Farfalla embodies the original design idea that has always distinguished the master Enzo Mari.
"Thingness is the" cosaslità", understood as the ability to reach the deep essence of an object, its real reason for existing, a constant prerogative in the best design projects. It can be said that an object reaches its "thing" when it represents and synthesizes that certain gesture, that certain operation for which it was conceived and created: that is, it assumes a symbolic value, it becomes an archetype of its category. But how difficult it is to achieve! ”- Alberto Alessi.
In Farfalla we find various characteristics of the "thing", an object that has its essence in the simple act of breaking nuts, borrowed from a mechanical workshop, of turning a butterfly screw by screwing it until the nut is crushed. Functionality therefore becomes a symbol, the search for the essential is the soul of this project, as well as a tribute to one of the great masters of Italian design.
