Electric Kettle - Plissé Red

Electric kettle in thermoplastic resin, red. The "Plissé" kettles shape is defined by its folds, a technique that isquite old but still very much in use today. With the skilful andcreative use of pleating, fashion designers shape fabrics and createclothes like sculptural works of art. "Plissé" was shaped starting froma folded sheet of paper, then developed and produced by Alessi as if itwere a beautiful sartorial object. The folds give form to the shape,they structure it, because a form without folds is only a volume withoutform.
