Plissé Collection: Thrmo-Insulated JugUpdated 9 days ago

Keeping Warm with Elegance: The Plissé Thermo-Insulated Jug

The Plissé thermo-insulated jug seamlessly extends the collection's timeless elegance to your table. Designed by Michele De Lucchi, this carafe masterfully combines high-performance insulation with the Plissé collection's iconic pleated form, offering both sophisticated style and exceptional functionality.

More than just a practical item, the Plissé jug stands out as a sculptural centrepiece. Its body and cap are crafted from thermoplastic resin, housing a double-walled thermal glass inner container. This thoughtful design marries classic echoes with contemporary lines, creating a visually striking object that will undoubtedly enhance any table setting. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the carafe is remarkably functional. It's lightweight and easy to use, boasting a generous 1-litre capacity. Its exceptional insulation properties are truly impressive, capable of keeping beverages hot for 12 hours and refreshingly cold for a full 24 hours. Additionally, the carefully designed spout ensures a completely drip-free pouring experience.

Every aspect of the Plissé jug has been meticulously considered for user convenience. The cap features a stainless steel button, allowing for easy one-touch opening and closing. For cleaning, a discreet, hidden button on the body enables effortless removal of the inner glass container. Using the jug is equally straightforward: simply unscrew the cap to fill it. For optimal temperature retention, it's recommended to rinse the inner container with warm water before adding hot beverages and with cold water before adding cold drinks. When it's time to serve, a simple press of the button on the cap is all it takes—there's no need to remove it. To lock the thermal seal and maintain temperature, just press the centre of the cap again.

Maintaining the Plissé jug is also quite easy. The inner container and cap can be washed with warm water and a non-abrasive detergent. The outer body should be wiped clean with a damp cloth. To preserve its integrity, avoid immersing the entire carafe in water or washing it in the dishwasher.

Ultimately, the Plissé thermo-insulated jug is far more than just a practical carafe; it's a distinctive statement piece that brings a touch of sophisticated design and enduring elegance to any home or office environment.


It is available in green, white, black, red and grey for the European, Swiss, American and British markets.
