Italian design is at its best thanks to Alessi.
Amongst things that caught my eye on their US Online Store is their Anna G and Alessandro M corkscrew collection.
I chose one of the Anna G to illustrate this.
This model is $49.00 and will add a little je ne sais quoi to your dinner or party setting.
More seasonal is their Eggs and Rabbits Easter Selection.
Feeling in an extravagant mood, check the Silver Tea and Coffee Tower Set designed by architect Zaha Hadid for Alessi and available exclusively it seems through high end site 20ltd.com. Read more details at number 19 on the site.
Only 99 copies will be made and the set can be yours for 20,000 British Pounds if you have the patience to wait up to 5 months for the delivery.
Also on luxury and corkscrews: Laguiole offers the Patek Philippe of Corkscrews and A day in paradise starts at $35,000
