Alessi — Santiago DC05/4 GD | Gold-colored steel dessert spoon

There is a quiet discipline in the Santiago spoon that reveals itself upon first contact. Gold-coated 18/10 stainless steel transforms an everyday gesture - scooping, savouring, setting down - into a moment of formal awareness. The golden finish is not ostentatious luxury: it is retained light, warmth diffused across the table, a reflection that engages with ceramics, linen, and blown glass. Sixteen centimetres of metallurgical precision, designed for dessert, yet capable of redefining the entire table setting. Santiago was created by David Chipperfield, the British architect whose vision is built on the essential - pure volumes, honest surfaces, and inhabitable silences. When Alessi asked him to design a cutlery collection, Chipperfield brought with him the same grammar as his buildings: no decoration that is not structure, no curve that does not answer a need. The result is a collection that belongs to the tradition of fine European silverware while being unmistakably contemporary. At Stilmobili, we chose Santiago because it embodies a vision of the table that we share: one in which every object is chosen with intention, where attention to detail is a cultural act before it is an aesthetic one. It is the ideal spoon for those who set the table as they furnish a room - with coherence, history, and character. Perfect as a gift for those who appreciate signature design, and extraordinary as a starting point for building a complete tableware set. Project notes: 18/10 stainless steel, gold PVD finish.
