Alessi — Girotondo AKK10 W | Pierced woman napkin ring

There is something immediately recognizable about Girotondo: that stylized female figure, cut from steel like an old paper game, holding hands with itself in an endless circle. The AKK10 W napkin ring brings this same magic to the table in an intimate format - a perforated ring in polished, precisely crafted 18/10 stainless steel, capable of transforming the everyday act of folding a napkin into a small ritual of domestic beauty. Girotondo was created through a collaboration between Alessi and the Milanese studio King-Kong - namely Isabella Anselmi and Marco Maggioni - in the early 1990s, and almost immediately became one of the most beloved and recognizable symbols of the “Factory of Dreams” in Crusinallo. The silhouette of the woman with raised arms, a simple and universal archetype, lends itself to being adapted to every everyday object without ever losing its poetic appeal. It belongs to Alessi’s A collection, conceived as a visual alphabet of the Italian art of living well. At Stilmobili, we chose Girotondo because it represents exactly what we look for: objects that do more than simply function, but also tell a story. It is the perfect gift for those who love to set the table with care, and for those who see the table as a space for connection, not merely consumption. It works just as well in a contemporary kitchen as in a more classic setting, with that rare ability to adapt without ever giving up its character. Design notes: 18/10 stainless steel. Diameter 4.20 cm, height 5.00 cm. Weight 51 grams. Alessi A collection, spring/summer program. Available in the version with a female figure.
