Michele De Lucchi has designed the most industrious butler of all times: an elegant chap, always immaculately turned out in his livery of soft wooden forms. He has long tapered legs, and his open arms bear a storage box with smooth angles. The parts are connected by dovetail joints. From up close, the crenelated wedge becomes easily visible; with a refined visual effect, it reveals all the expertise required to produce it.
Silent and diligent, it is always a pleasure to meet Alfred at the end of the day to hang up your clothes, which you will find in a perfect condition the following morning.
