| 9/29/05: Schnabel's series of seven porcelain cups and saucers for illy
features his longtime inspiration, the surfer-themed character named Chuck.
There are five espresso cups, each labeled a different weekday, and each
sporting Chuck wearing a new expression. The "Saturday" and
"Sunday" cups are full-size mugs, again featuring Chuck, perhaps
suggesting more time to relax and enjoy one's favorite coffee. Keeping with
the surf theme, the cups come packaged in a Schnabel-designed life
preserver. Julian Schnabel's espresso cup collection will include the
five weekday cups and one can of illy coffee, and will retail for $160. The

coffee, will retail for $60. Both sets will be available on www.illyusa.com
