With this basket, which emerged from technical experiments by the Ufficio Tecnico Alessi using bent wire, Alessi witnessed the birth of a new genre of containers for the dining table and kitchen, whose elemental style continues to receive great acclaim to this day. The basket 845 is made entirely of stainless steel wire and features a double-walled base.

Alessi, the dream factory from Italy since 1921. Since the 1950s, renowned names in design and architecture have collaborated with Alessi. "Everything made of metal and of the highest quality" was Alessi's original motto. Later, glassware, porcelain, and plastics were added. The product range is divided into three lines: “Officina Alessi” (selected products, unique pieces, and limited series in the higher price segment), “Alessi” (series products in productive quality with innovative design), and “A di Alessi” (high-quality products for a broad audience in the lower price segment).
