Description
Anna G. Corkscrew Special Edition in red was first produced in 1994 for Alessi and since then it is a best seller. The Anna G. corkscrew is a homage to a real woman. Her smiling face has become something of a cult figure over the years, giving birth to range of similarly playful homeware designs for the Italian manufacturer.
Designed 25 years ago by the great contemporary architect, Alessandro Mendini, this quirky device with an anthropomorphic shape became the trademark of Alessi.
With a long history of being involved in supporting other non-profit initiatives, Alessi contributes a portion of the purchase price from the RED Special Edition Alessandro M. corkscrew to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, which can provide 8 days of life-saving HIV medication.
For the Special Edition, Anna G. is adorned in a red dress with a white heart embraced by red’s brackets on the front, and the red logo at the bottom of the back side.
