The conica, the first espresso coffee maker project by architect Aldo Rossi, was born from a play of simple geometric shapes that form a mini table architecture, with a concise and elegant style. A timeless icon, the conica has a stainless steel body and a copper bottom: a refined object, with essential geometric lines that give life to a functional tool with which to prepare and serve coffee.
Available for 3 and 6 cups
