Pulcina Espresso Coffee Maker 6 Cups, Michele De Lucchi for Alessi

Alessi produces home goods and kitchenware built on principles of refinement, innovation and functionality. Considered one of the Italian firm's most iconic designs, the Pulcina espresso coffee maker was created by Memphis Milano alumnus Michele De Lucchi. The Pulcina (or "chick" in Italian) accentuates the aromas and flavors of coffee while halting the brewing process before it develops a bitter aftertaste. The beak-like spout ensures the pot provides a perfect pour. Featuring an hourglass silhouette, the Pulcina is manufactured in cast aluminum with a nylon handle and upper knob.
