The Tonale Tablett was created by the British architect and designer Sir David Chipperfield for Italy's Alessi label. A far cry from Chipperfield's monumental buildings, this modest chopping board is a stunning piece of kitchenware design.
In one sense, the Tonale Tablett is classic Chipperfield. It is completely geared towards practicality and durability, in the same way that his constructions are conceived to fit into existing urban areas over the decades, not as flashy artistic statements. It's also a classic Alessi creation; the Italian company has been turning out accomplished everyday items from big-name designers for decades, harnessing their exceptional eye for form and function.
In any case, all chefs will appreciate the quality of this chopping board. Measuring 22cm in diameter, it has been crafted from solid beech wood, which gives it a rich colour and the resilience to handle knife cuts or hot plates. It can be used equally well as a cheeseboard, a place to prepare vegetables, or a setting to serve casseroles or curries.
Whether you need a space to cut onions or to display a collection of fine French cheeses, the Tonale Tablett will be an impressive addition to your home.
