Looking like a leaky blue balloon, or a big drop of water, Giulio Iacchetti's "Drop" shower head for iB Rubinetterie, improves water delivery and because it's made of silicon, it doesn't allow for the formation of icky lime deposits. The whole idea is to save water when showering, making every "Drop" count.
