For the Super Star project, Tom Kovac has unleashed the poetic-architectural enthusiasm which served him so well in the “Tea & coffee towers” operation. This centrepiece, initially a chocolate holder for Nestlé in 2007, is now part of Alessi catalogue. The shape of Super Star directly refers to the function it accomplishes and its name: Many small containers, all joined together in a circular shape to create a star. It is the proposal of an open centrepiece concept which helps to satisfy the varying needs of convivial hospitality, from starter dish to chocolate holder. Super Star is made of 18/10 stainless steel, by spinning and subsequent shearing. A qualitative characteristic of Super Star’s production is the mirror finishing of the inside of the containers. This is very difficult (and makes the item more valuable) due to the depth and small size of the cavities.
