— May 5, 2022 — Art & Design
The Smeg Piano Hob cooktop is an elegantly designed, retro-inspired appliance for the modern kitchen inspired by a product originally conceived by architect Renzo Piano in 1995. The cooktop is crafted out of stainless steel to give it a decidedly sleek construction and boasts a series of safety valves that cut off the flow of gas if the flame is accidentally extinguished. The highly polished finish of the cooktop makes it a gleaming addition to any modern or old-fashioned kitchen design.

The Smeg Piano Hob cooktop is limited to just 1,000 examples and comes in two size options. Starting at €799 for the five-burner model, the cooktop is sleek and easy to care for between uses thanks to its open-style construction.
