Centerpiece ES15 - Orange

To celebrate its centenary, Alessi presented the Values Collection, a special series that brings together previously unreleased pieces and reissues of iconic designs that reflect the brand's core values. Among them is the ES15 centerpiece, a creation by Ettore Sottsass that transforms an everyday object into an expression of art and design.

The ES15 reflects Sottsass's signature approach: a fusion of geometry, color, and materiality that creates a piece with a strong sculptural presence. Crafted from turned ash, its silhouette composed of stacked volumes and chromatic contrasts highlights the designer's masterful craftsmanship and playful spirit. More than just a container, the ES15 is an aesthetic statement, where the tradition of woodworking meets formal experimentation.

Reinterpreted within the Values Collection, this centerpiece reaffirms Alessi's vision as a design laboratory, where functionality and emotion coexist in perfect balance.

Made from linden wood, this striking and powerful centerpiece is one of the most significant pieces designed by Ettore Sottsass for Alessi.
The wide bowl can hold fruit, sweets and other decorative items.
