"The design is a typical post-war application of the industrial material aluminum to the domestic market. The elegant curve of the body is achieved through spinning, a manufacturing process especially suited to the malleable qualities of aluminium. Published in Design Awards 1957, pamphlet (National Industrial Design Council, 1957)."
