While drinking liquid from a typical refrigerated filter, the sense of purity that your taste buds pick up is not generally the experience of your eyes. Unlike most, the Soma Water Filter flaunts an elegant design that challenges the bulky look and build that you're used to encountering in these types of culinary contraptions.
Having been inspired by the nearly hourglass silhouette of the red wine carafe, this lovely vessel has a broad beaker-shaped bottom, a slim and graspable neck and a flaring top that accommodates the white conical strainer. The expertly conceived system by David Beeman makes use of compostable components that comprise vegan silk and Malaysian coconut shells with food safe PLA plastic. The flap-less top of the Soma Water Filter enables easy filling and reduces the usual incorporation of breakable parts.
