Starck's Poele Collection for Alessi Goes Beyond the Pan
Briefly

“I have been trying to make a chair with Philippe Starck for around 20 years now and, finally, we did it. I asked him if it was possible to design a chair that is manufactured like a frying pan is made using the Alessi cold-press metal high-technology.
The Poêle Chair started as a serious joke, with a sketch of a pan with legs and the great idea of adapting an existing high-technology to different purposes. The seat and back inspired by a frying pan, legs as handles.
The language of this collection, which is made from mirror polished 18/10 stainless steel along with brown dye beech wood, is luxurious, yet familiar.
