Alessi - 17.5 oz. Chiringuito Mixing Glass with Strainer

Hailed as one of the foremost designers of the twentieth century, Ron Arad is known internationally for his unique designs incorporating unorthodox combinations of materials and concepts, and abstract forms. Always adding his own personal slant on things, Arad has made many functional home pieces from durable modern materials with intense artistic flair for any home space.


After Marc Newson’s Shaker “Cosmo” and Jasper Morrison’s “Bolly” bottle cooler, here is the next episode in the bar and wines saga that over the last few years we have been writing for the new century. Ron Arad has excelled himself creating a small family of objects that, as usual, are not only heavily iconic on the aesthetic plane, but each is hallmarked by an innovative, curious performance: the twisted shape of the shaker should make you think that the liquid inside is going to “twist”, then there is the “spindle-type” movement of the stirrer and the handbag-style two-bottle cooler that you can even hang from the table, which are just some of the more appealing examples of the attention-grabbing effect that is achieved with an unexpected application of a specific shape/function to a completely new typological context.
