'Moka' espresso coffee maker, three cups

Designed by British architect David Chipperfield for Alessi, the 'Moka' espresso coffee pot is a celebration of one of Italy's favourite pastimes: coffee drinking. Multifaceted, with eleven sides, the stainless steel pot is a modernised update of Alfonso Bialetti's early 1900s original. Contemporary innovations include a flat lid, upon which users can rest and warm up waiting coffee cups, while an angled grey thermoplastic resin handle allows for easy, seamless pouring. This pot has the capacity to create three cups of coffee.
