Weiss' typically sculptural combination of cylindrical and cubic volumes articulates the functional elements of the grinding process as discrete units: jar, motor block and caddy. The transition from cylindrical bean caddy to cubular grounds container refers to the transformation of beans into grounds. This example with red switch was issued following Weiss' departure from the company in 1968. The design was originally issued with a switch in sage green.
