## Description

One of the first projects by French designer, Philippe Starck for Alessi. The Juicy Salif was devised in the second half of the 1980s (along with the Walter Wayle II wall clock, the Hot Bertaa kettle and the large Max le Chinois colander). An excellent example of Alessis role as artistic mediator in the most turbulent areas of creative potential (the piece was his response to our precise briefing for a stainless steel tray), it remains unparalleled in its ability to generate discussions about its meaning and design, partly because of its unconventional use of what semiologists refer to as the decorative veil which, even though generally in a less overt manner, is inexorably destined to cover all objects created by man. To fully understand the true meaning of its existence, it is possibly necessary to refer to the theories of Leroy-Gourham, who considers the notion of functional approximation to be fundamental. This notion suggests that there is always a certain degree of freedom in interpreting relationships between Form and Function: it is precisely this continual play between Form and Function that leads to the decorative veil mentioned above, that Floch considers to be the manifestation of the legendary and aesthetic dimension of the object, as originally defined by Greimas. As well as being the most controversial citrus fruit squeezer of the 20th century, it has also become one of the icons of design of the 1990s, and it continues to be one of the most provocatively intelligent articles in the Alessi catalog

Review: Sono davvero entusiasta di aver acquistato il spremiagrumi Alessi PSJS Juicy Salif! Non è solo un oggetto funzionale, ma anche un vero e proprio pezzo di design che arricchisce la cucina con il suo stile unico e moderno. La lavorazione è di altissima qualità, ed è facile da usare: basta posizionarlo sopra un bicchiere e spremere gli agrumi, senza complicazioni. Inoltre, il suo design iconico lo rende anche un ottimo elemento decorativo quando non viene utilizzato. Consiglio vivamente a chi cerca un prodotto che unisca funzionalità e stile, senza rinunciare all’eleganza!
Review: Excellent, menacing, aesthetic item.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Wasn't this thing in men in black ii?**
A: Actually Philippe Starck designed this in the late 80’s, production began 1990. M.I.B. II came out in 2003 (Production began in 2001). If anything, someone borrowed the ship design from Philippe—Even the 1st MIB wasn’t out until 1997.

**Q: how do you use it?**
A: Just like on the picture: put the cup underneath, press and twist half of the orange (or lemon, or grapefruit etc) against the top - the squeezed juice flows down the "grooves" into the cup.

**Q: Wasn't this in the kitchen in the British comedy Absolutely Fabulous?**
A: I remeber the show, but I don't recall seeing it there, I will have to look at videos. Good eye! I seen it in other shows and movies, is a beautiful functional piece of art for sure. It's an Alessi! Enjoy it!

**Q: What color is it? It looks kinda blue umbre in the primary image presented but I thought it is silver/stainless tone.**
A: No not blue all silver stainless beautiful piece for kitchen counter. I love mine I do not use!  strictly for the art.

El exprimidor Juicy Salif de Alessi, diseñado por Philippe Starck, es mucho más que un simple exprimidor de cítricos: es una pieza de diseño icónica y llamativa que decora la cocina como una escultura moderna. Está hecho de aluminio fundido, lo que lo hace resistente y fácil de limpiar. Su forma orgánica, con patas largas y una cabeza para exprimir, levanta opiniones divididas, pero no pasa desapercibido. En cuanto a su funcionalidad, exprimir con él es posible aunque no es tan cómodo ni eficiente como exprimidores más convencionales. Su diseño prioriza la estética y generar conversación, más que la máxima practicidad. Es común que muchos usuarios lo compren por su diseño, y no tanto para usarlo a diario. Sin embargo, cumple correctamente con su función para limones y naranjas con un toque de estilo que pocas veces se ve en utensilios de cocina. Este exprimidor es perfecto para quienes apreciáis el diseño industrial y que vuestros utensilios sean también un punto focal decorativo. No es ideal para quienes busquen un exprimidor puramente funcional y cómodo, pero sí para quienes valoren que un objeto combine arte y utilidad. En definitiva, un icono del diseño que también puede servirte para exprimir, aunque su mayor mérito es hacer que la cocina no pase desapercibida. Esta pieza emblemática ha sido reconocida en museos y colecciones de diseño, y sigue siendo un tema de conversación en cualquier cocina donde se coloque. Ideal para amantes del diseño, coleccionistas o para regalar a alguien a quien le guste la combinación de arte y funcionalidad.
