Postmodern Bread Basket

Michael Graves

Designed by renowned American architect Michael Graves for Alessi in 1994, this bread basket exemplifies the designer’s signature blend of postmodern style and functional elegance. Crafted from perforated stainless steel with gently curved lines and resting on warm pearwood feet, the basket presents a refined contrast of materials that elevates everyday dining. The minimalist yet playful form reflects Graves’s architectural background and his long-standing collaboration with Alessi, transforming a simple serving piece into an iconic object of 1990s design. Ideal for presenting bread, fruit, or pastries.
