Set of 6 Coffee Cups, Illy Art Collection, 2001 MoMA PS1

Description

A small contemporary art gallery to hold in the palm of your hand. This exclusive set of six espresso cups (and saucers) is part of the celebrated illy Art Collection , the series that transformed the coffee ritual into a high-level aesthetic experience.

Specifically, this is the refined "PS1" edition, launched in 2001. The project was born from the collaboration with the PS1 Contemporary Art Center in New York (a historic institution affiliated with the MoMA ). Six artists from the New York scene (H. Murai, S. Mac Williams, E. Zawada, J. Koop, E. Lehmann, S. Montserrat) have customized the classic Illy shape, making each cup a unique piece: from textures reminiscent of coffee beans to abstract landscapes or graphic motifs.

Crafted from premium IPA hard porcelain ( Made in Italy ), these cups are not only beautiful to look at, but also guarantee a professional tasting experience. It's the ultimate set for collectors of the Trieste brand and for those who love to surround themselves with signature design, even during their coffee break.

Insured and tracked shipping.
