Having obtained his degree from DAMS (Drama, Art and Music Studies, Bologna) in 1977, Jori embarked on his career as an artist, soon exhibiting in national and foreign galleries and museums. In 1979, Jori painted himself on top of a ladder painting the fall of the angel, in contact with the heavens which marked a turning point in his artistic career. This painting displays a new expressive energy that was featured in his works over the entire following decade.
The goal of the figurine series is to contrast the intriguing world of porcelain figures, particularly the refined production tradition of European manufacturers from the 18th century, with Alessi's contemporary methods and design aesthetics. Excellent for your home or your office desk, this figurine by Marcello Jori is sure to impress.

Alessi's intention, from the beginning, was to be highly innovative and ready to experiment with cookware. With this in mind, the Alessi family venture explored new materials and novel design in becoming one of the finest and most well-known contemporary cookware brands. Alessi prides itself on its unique collaboration with designers and architects to produce beautiful, quality cookware. Among some of the best known of the Alessi's products are Richard Sapper's kettle with a two-tone whistle, Michael Graves' kettle with bird shaped whistle, and Philippe Starck's Juicy Salif citrus squeezer.
