Known for his particular interest in neo-modern and contemporary design, he has amassed much recognition as a designer, architect and image consultant for many corporations creating many objects, furniture and interior installations. Mendini describes his mission as one “to communicate through my objects and work in general, trying to say things that encourage people to deepen meditation and spirituality.” In the Alessandro M. corkscrew, Mendini has definitely defined a new design for this common item. With all the functionality of a traditional corkscrew, Mendini has utilized all of its components to resemble the shape of a man - himself to be specific - how anthropomorphic! This piece is made from durable polyamide and chrome-plated zamak and comes in three color options for your home bar.

Broke when used on synthetic cork I have an arthritic thumb which makes traditional corkscrews difficult and painful to use. This Alessi is very easy to use but in less than a year it broke when used on the synthetic cork in the wine bottle |

Alessandro Corkscrew Purchased in Rome because it was "cute"; found it was totally awesome when used! Better than the more expensive and popular rabbit style. Will buy more as gifts. |
