Alessi Bread box Red Metal. Dimensions: 34 × 21 cm x H 14 cm. The Swiss
studio, BIG-GAME, offers a versatile object designed to accompany an everyday
activity; easting bread, by highlighting its ritual and convivial nature. This
elegant and contemporary colourful steel bread bin is ideal for storing your
bread and keeping your kitchen tidy. The side hole allows in the humidity
necessary for optimal bread preservation (for perfect preservation it is
advisable to put the bread in a tea towel or paper bag before putting it in the
bread bin). The clever natural-bamboo lid also serves as a chopping board to
slice your bread. The ribs catch the crumbs. To slice the bread, you can leave
the top on the bread bin or place it on the table. Little non-slip feet placed
on the base of the top ensure its stability when it is removed from the bin and
protect the worktop that it is placed on. Mattina can also be used to bring
breakfast to the table. The chopping board can be used as a tray to put cups,
spoons and a sugar bowl on… In addition to bread, the box can contain other
breakfast foods. The upper part of the bread bin is equipped with two handles
which make it easy to move. The shape of the lower part of the top was designed
to fit perfectly on top of the container, in order to make it stable and secure,
even when it is used as a board. The designers from BIG-GAME studio explain:
Mattina is a practical bread bin with a bamboo, resistant chopping board which
serves as a lid. Starting with advice from bakers who recommended rolling up the
bread in a tea towel or paper and storing it in a box that is not completely
hermetic, we designed this metal bread bin with holes to control the humidity
and preserve the bread in an ideal way. Equipped with handles, the bread bin is
also very pleasant to bring to the table and to share good bread, an essential
food for every meal.
