MACH COFFEE POT (4 cups) - SERAFINO ZANI

«The boiling water slowly rises and meets the magic threshold, through which the water becomes coffee. The magical transformation of water into coffee inside a coffee maker has prompted me to transfer the ritual, magical and symbolic value to the purely physical process. Two identical cones are joined symmetrically above and below by a long Greek column. The lower cone contains the water to be heated and the upper cone, placed upside down, will have its coffee only after the ritual cheerful passage along the vertical column».
Isao Hosoe

Born from the collaboration between the Japanese designer Isao Hosoe and Serafino Zani, the Mach coffee maker, inspired by Doric columns, was able to express the language of art in an object of everyday use.
Made of die-cast aluminum, hygienic and easy to clean thanks to its special coating, Mach represents a suggestion but also a true exploration of the material and high-level design. Initially produced in seven color variations (green, blue, mustard, pink, purple, aluminum and bronze), Mach is essential and exclusive in its forms: two opposing truncated cones, connected by a grooved cylinder.
The handle made of thermoplastic insulating material allows for an easy and secure grip.
An evergreen design object, the Mach espresso coffee maker by Isao Hosoe represents one of those historic pieces that have placed Serafino Zani among the companies in the sector with the most innovative design. A creative thought made of experimentation and passion for the culture of the table, the kitchen, the home; where steel has always been the undisputed protagonist and, sometimes, in happy combination with other materials.

NB Already selected by Alessandro Mendini for the third edition of the “Triennale Design Museum - new interpretation of Italian design” (26 March 2010 - 27 March 2011), the Mach coffee maker was chosen by Giulio Iachetti for the exhibition “Le Caffettiere dei Maestri” https://www.giulioiacchetti.com/?p=5688&lang=it

Please note: These are the last available examples of an iconic object, made in the 90s and no longer put back into production. These coffee makers have small aesthetic defects due to the progressive deterioration of the original molds. Signs present mostly on the base and inside the spout, which in no way preclude their functionality.
