Synonymous with the ‘Made in Italy’ trademark, the Moka pot is probably the most widespread kitchen utensil in an Italian household.
The Moka is a coffee pot designed by Alfonso Bialetti in 1933 and subsequently produced in more than 105 million units. This product of Italian industrial design is famous all over the world and it is currently being exhibited in the permanent collection of the Triennale Design Museum in Milan and the MoMA in New York.
The Moka has changed slightly in shape over the years, always keeping its typical octagonal shape in aluminium, which has been patented and represents one of the distinctive and original elements of the product. Today, the Moka is known all over the world as a ‘Made in Italy’ icon.
