Juicy Salif - squeezer;lemon squeezer

Description:

Philippe Starck designed this notorious lemon squeezer, named 'Juicy Salif', for Alessi in 1988. Alberto Alessi has written that the design came about from a series of sketches of squids scribbled onto a napkin, each squid evolving more recognisably into the shape of the squeezer. This particular example was bought from the shop Aria on Upper Street in Islington.
