Eugenia, Bottle Cap

Essential in its details, precise, and refined. The Eugenia champagne stopper translates the idea of a measured and functional gesture, designed to enhance the contemporary ritual of wine. The decagonal shape expresses a sober visual elegance, at the same time offering a safe and intuitive grip; the expansion closure system and the internal plastic and silicone part provide a hermetic seal, perfectly preserving the carbonation of the wine. Like a jewel on the bottle.

The name is a tribute to Alberto Alessi's winery, &quotLa signora Eugenia e il passero solitario&quot, whose products come in a bottle inspired by a design by Leonardo da Vinci. Taking his cue from this bottle, Naoto Fukasawa developed a set characterised by pure, essential design, featuring a line with an obtuse angle, &quotDonkaku&quot in Japanese, which becomes the formal characteristic of the entire set.
