The Acacia honey spoon is the result of research by designer Miriam Mirri into the sweet world of honey. This research led her to design an object that could be used with the different qualities of honey available on the market. Published by Alessi, Acacia makes it easy to collect and measure out honey, thanks to its unique shape consisting of a spoon and a faceted ball, inspired by the hexagonal structure of a beehive. This honey spoon is an original gift idea for all lovers of honey and beautiful objects.
In 1921, Giovanni Alessi founded the Italian company Alessi. Since 1929, the company has focussed on producing nickel- or silver-plated copper tableware. When Carlo Alessi, Giovanni's son, was appointed design director in 1935, handcrafting methods were replaced by industrial manufacturing. In 1955, the company began collaborating with world-renowned architects and designers such as Richard Sapper, Ettore Sottsass, and later, Philippe Starck and Marcel Wanders. Alessi makes design accessible by focussing on useful, humorous and visually appealing home accessories. Most of its products have become design classics that are sold and exhibited around the world.
