Inspired by the historical octagonal pot and characterized by an elegant and sculptural geometric shape, the Menhir moka by Micheal Anastassiades will bring a new dimension to an iconic category.
Made at the Alessi factory in Omegna and fully crafted in stainless steel, this moka combines the best & highest quality Alessi metalworking with the architectural design approach of Michael Anastassiades.

The name Menhir (ˈmɛnhɪər; from Brittonic languages: maen or men, “stone” and hir or hîr, “long”) is inspired by the concept of monoliths or “long stones” carefully positioning in a landscape, which are believed to have once been associated with religious ceremonies or other rituals.

Representing the power of a form with great emblematic presence, Anastassiades has connected the Menhir heritage with the modern-day ritual of making coffee.
