15 Stylish French Presses That Will Make Your Morning Coffee Even Better

There are some kitchen appliances that are just as pleasing aesthetically as they are functional. French press coffee makers are inarguably top of this list, with the detailed engineering of their fine mesh plunger mechanism and generally pleasing size and shape. There's just something about the tableau of a French press on a breakfast table next to a ceramic mug and plate of eggs that puts the soul at ease.

The ability to brew that perfect cup of coffee from your own home is a powerful thing, and while classic hot coffee pots and pour-overs can be solid coffee brewing methods, the look of a French press is rivaled only by those classic Italian stovetop expresso makers.

Of course, French presses can take many forms, and there are countless designs out there to choose from. These delicate coffee makers provide ample opportunity for sophisticated design, from color to material to shape.
