Alessi Blip Spoon Holder, Silver

This is a very nice piece. It’s very practical and beautiful at the same time, but I was expecting bigger!

Love this. A stylish way to help keep the benchtop clean. Dishwasher safe.

This is a work of art, as to be expected with Alessi and why we purchase Alessi. It's gorgeous. Luckily for me, I got it for a steal on a warehouse deal because someone missed the point. (If you want a $6 behemoth, monster holder that can catch every spill, get a KitchenPro "boat" at CostCo. This is not that. This is for Alessi loyalist nerds who desire a beautiful work of art and design that happens to double as a spoon holder.) Yes, it is smaller and somewhat daintier than the average spoon holder, but it still lovingly, perfectly cradles all my cooking utensils while making me appear much classier than I am. I keep it on the divider in the center of my stove, a little pop of elegant, whimsical design on the kitchen island where it can appreciated by the masses. Initially after reading reviews, I tried using it as a spoon holder for my coffee. But that covered it with drips, sullying its sparkling luster and buried it next to a machine in the shadows, like just another spoon holder. But this is Alessi and like all art, it is meant to be seen and enjoyed. Art is unexpected, not homogenous or predictable, and it shouldn't be like the rest--or it wouldn't be Alessi! The fact that it's also practical is Alessi's trademark bonus icing on the design-nerd cake. (I'd say it's too small to give as a gift alone, but would be lovely in a coffee/tea basket, or with the Alessi heart teaspoons.) If you love Alessi, you'll delight in it and adore it and find a purpose for it. Even if that's just staring admiringly at it on your counter, for beauty's sake.

Wunderschön. Hochwertig. Ich werde von meinen Gästen immer darauf angesprochen. Sehr schönes Design - wie von Alessi gewohnt.
