Dry Sauce Spoon
Made by Alessi
Designed by Achille Castiglioni
Achille Castiglioni conceived the Dry collection as a study in contradiction resolved: the mirror-polished bowl of 18/10 stainless steel meets a matte handle, creating a tactile and visual dialogue between reflection and restraint.
The silhouette is spare without being severe. Castiglioni's characteristic wit is present not in ornament, but in proportion - in the way the hand settles naturally into the grip, and the spoon performs its function with ease and confidence.

Alessi has produced the Dry collection since the 1990s, and its geometry has not aged. It belongs to that rare category of objects that feel neither nostalgic nor of-the-moment, simply considered.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who designed the Alessi Dry collection?
The Dry collection was designed by Achille Castiglioni, one of the most influential Italian designers of the twentieth century, known for his rigorous functionalism and dry, often humorous sensibility. He collaborated with Alessi across several projects that have since become icons of modern Italian design.
What grade of stainless steel is used in the Dry Sauce Spoon?
The Dry Sauce Spoon is made from 18/10 stainless steel, a grade that contains 18% chromium and 10% nickel, offering strong corrosion resistance and a lasting mirror polish. This is the standard used across professional and high-quality domestic flatware.
Is the Dry flatware collection dishwasher safe?
18/10 stainless steel is generally dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended to preserve the mirror finish on the bowl over time. The matte handle is particularly well-suited to regular use without showing wear.
How does the Dry collection differ from other Alessi flatware lines?
The Dry collection is distinguished by its formal contrast: a high-gloss bowl paired with a deliberately matte handle. Where many flatware lines pursue a uniform finish, Castiglioni used the surface transition as a design gesture in itself, making the object both functional and compositionally resolved.
