Cafe Chic

If it’s old-school European design you’re craving — along with an exceptional, traditional cuppa — the La Sorrentina coffee machine is sure to satiate. Originally the creation of Milan designer Giordano Robbiati, this atomic-style stove-top coffee maker epitomizes post-war, Italian design. Its most recent resurrection is the result of an Australian-Taiwanese collaboration, which has birthed this sleek, simple, functional, and beautiful machine. And in the days of $10,000 espresso machines, this versatile Moka easily brews up an impressive Americano or two to six shots of espresso on your stove-top for a lot less energy and cost.
