The Wick Culture - Rose Wylie Teapot for Loewe

Object Rose Wylie Teapot for LOEWE

Price on Request

For their annual exhibition at Salone del Mobile/a> in April LOEWE launched a collection of teapots specially developed by 25 artists, designers and architects. Known for its celebration of craft and its nurturing of the next generation of practitioners, Loewe invited each artist to approach the perennial household item with originality and flair – reimagining the vessel as a sculptural form drawing on varied traditions found all over the world. The teapot’s most distinctive elements – its handle and spout – were the focal points for many of the artists. Our absolute favourite has to be this design by Rose Wylie. Taking inspiration from British Royal Albert china tea sets, it features an exaggerated lid and fluted detailing and Wylie’s trademark handwritten witticism. It’s whimsical and elegant, all at once.
