Alessi 9098 Pepper Mill

Product description

The Alessi 9098 Pepper Grinder is a celebrated piece from Michael Graves, an architect whose foray into product design marked a memorable chapter in the design world. This pepper grinder, alongside its matching salt shaker, stands as a testament to Graves’ distinctive postmodern style that garnered both acclaim and controversy at the close of the 20th century. Alberto Alessi himself reflects on supporting Graves’ initial steps into product design, acknowledging the architect’s journey marked by enthusiasm, contradiction, and undeniable popularity despite industry critiques.

Crafted from stainless steel, the 9098 Pepper Grinder features signature oversized wings of PA plastic, a bold emblem of the postmodern design era that propelled Alessi to prominence in the 1980s. This iconic design remains a beloved fixture in homes worldwide, continuing to demonstrate the lasting appeal of Graves’ vision.
