illy Art Collection Cups
The largest collection of everyday art objects in the world
Unforgotten progenitor, Matteo Thun's coffee cups have been offered as a "blank canvas" to the hand of the greatest contemporary artists, transforming them into collector's items - each cup is signed and numbered. Since 1996 the cups have been joined by jars, also interpreted by great artists.
Special Editions
In addition to the limited and numbered editions, illy exceptionally produces special editions, often consisting of a single cup, signed by a great artist.
Designer Coffee Cans
In 2006, the color wave of the illy Art Collections submerged a real symbol of our coffee: the jar. Thanks to great international artists such as James Rosenquist, Michael Lin, Michelangelo Pistoletto with Cittadellarte, Tobias Rehberger.
