DESCRIPTION & HISTORY

  • Heat-resistant glass
  • Removable wooden elements

 

The Chemex is a manual glass filter coffee maker invented by chemist Peter Schlumbohm in 1941, and it is still manufactured and distributed by the Chemex Corporation, based in Chicopee, Massachusetts, USA. According to designers at the Illinois Institute of Technology, the Chemex is “one of the best-designed products of modern times.” As such, it was included in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1958. Few products in this century can match the flawless blend of design and function. That’s coffeekult.
