The story

Normann Copenhagen developed Magma with the Canadian designer Francis Cayouette.3 The jug held one litre. Its surface was rubber, its filler unbreakable plastic and its spout stainless steel, and it came in red, black, grey, light brown, dark brown and orange.3

It has since dropped out of Normann Copenhagen's range.4
