I think these cotton swab holders are very unique and are just adorable! They are very well-made, very colorful and a lot of fun. I gave 2 of the 5 I ordered as gifts and the recipients were just thrilled and everyone was asking me where I purchased them. I told them All-Modern.com

Comments about Alessi Pisellino Cotton Swab Holder by Stefano Giovannoni:
OK, I know, it's just a cotton swab holder! But I get a kick out of the little guy (although I'm not, by nature, into whimsical or sci-fi things). Pisellino has a "mod" look, his color is perfect for my bathroom, and he saves me from having to get tangled up with my girlfriend when going for the drawer where I used to keep my Qs. What more could you want?

Comments about Alessi Pisellino Cotton Swab Holder by Stefano Giovannoni:
This little guy is hilarious! Someone else mentions a "surprise." I had read the review before purchasing, totally didn't connect the dots on what they were refering to. To make it clearer for future buyers: This object has man parts.
That being said, I love him. I find it hilarious and adorable... And, he does his job!

Comments about Alessi Pisellino Cotton Swab Holder by Stefano Giovannoni:
After seeing these, I wanted to buy one for myself and another for a friend. When they arrived, I was surprised to find that these cute little guys are anatomically correct. Nothing really offensive or detailed, but it may keep someone from using for the guest bathroom. You may want to pay attention to the dimensions. I didn't and they seemed a little shorter and wider than I expected. But it still doesn't take up much space and adds a little fun to my bathroom. I just have some explaining to do when I give it to my friend.
Service and delivery comments:
Delivery was pretty quick. The boxes were a little dirty and showed some damage. I don't think it was from shippinng but from how they have been stored. The products themselves were not damaged.

This was for a friend at work (who happens to receive the mail) so I was a bit disappointed when the package arrived in it's original Alessi box without any covering it!
