The Moka Express is more than a pot; it is a longstanding symbol of Italian coffee culture, dating back to 1933. The characterful silhouette and the famous moustached gentleman represent Renato Bialetti, the inventor’s son, while the 1953 design by Paul Campani helped shape a globally beloved ritual.
