Inspired by high-end fashion, Italian designer and architect Michele de Lucchi designed this toaster with a ribbed pattern resembling couture pleats. The matte black finish emphasizes the toaster's crisp lines and sculptural presence. Six browning levels ensure every slice is toasted to your personal preferences. Understated black buttons illuminate when in use, and the two stainless steel slots add gleaming highlights. Pair with the coordinating electric kettle for a cohesive look.
