Reviving classic beauty for an industry leader
Proctor Silex approached CHOI Design Group to expand their line of steam irons with something unique to the market that only Procter Silex could introduce: a design that recalls the charm of midcentury aesthetics while offering the modern performance and features.
The result is a beautiful, sweeping handle with an entirely metal base that has delighted customers with its quality as much as its classic good-looks.
