Parmenide parmesan grater with cheese cellar des. Alejandro Ruiz for Alessi (black)

The Parmenide grater, designed by Alejandro Ruiz, combines two domestic kitchen products in one: it's both a cheese grater and a cheese cellar. The delightful little container is incredibly handy when you want to serve cheese at the table. Ruiz's innovative combination of two separate functions has helped earn the Parmenide a place at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.
