Alessi Plisse Toaster WhiteThis toaster is an object with an elegant design: the colours chosen by the author and the pleated surface offer ample reason why it is a real eye catcher on any kitchen work surface. It contains three buttons to Stop Eject, Defrost & Bagel. 6 browning levels. Designed by Michele De Lucchi, this is a range inspired by the pliss that come from the fashions of the 1950s and 1960s when pleated skirts created stunning effects of floaty and frothy fabrics,
