Product Overview

Gino Zucchino red / Alessi Historical Product

Sugar Castor

Guido Venturini for Alessi 1993

Thermoplastic Resin

[5.5"H x 3.25" Diameter]

Note: The first all-plastic Alessi product--Gino Zucchino sparked a revolution in colourful plastic housewares in the early 1990's.

Guido Venturini pioneered a design that speaks to the masses as well as experts and in the 1990s he created a successful series of items that included this anthropomorphic sugar castor, one of the most famous icons from the series. With his irresistible smile and large doe-eyes, Gino Zucchino is ever-present at breakfast time, just like an old friend, and brings heaps of fun (and sugar!) to the table.
