This Citrus Squeezer is an undeniably beautiful piece of design, but highly controversial in regards to it’s function. Often regarded now as a decorative piece, this is a strong example of function following form, as while it does serve it’s purpose as a juicer, it is certainly a beautiful object first, and a functional one second.
With age this particular juicer has tarnished beautifully, giving it a unique darkened look.
