On the list of things we love about Italy between mozzarella and picturesque medieval cities are the mod, primary-hued office supplies of
Ellepi. A tiny company founded by stationary designer Oscar Lepre in 1977, the in-house team still makes every item by hand from their home in Cologno Monzese, including this stapler. Imagined originally by Lepre in 1984, it’s a strong yet lightweight tool shaped like a whale because of Lepre’s love of the ocean.
