Vegetable Ceramics
Last month I visited the Kaffe Fassett Exhibition at the American Museum. The profusion of colour was ever so slightly overwhelming, and it seemed rather pointless taking pictures of his beautiful work because I have better pictures in books.
This vase caught my eye, though. It was in one of the display cases to illustrate how inspiration can be drawn from ceramics. I had never seen a vase decorated with tomatoes before.
Neither had I seen a cauliflower teapot. Too barmy for words.

Hi Muv
ReplyDeleteI love the look of that teapot but I can't shake the feeling that a pot that shape would make the tea taste of veg water.

Same here, Gavin. You'd end up adding cornflour and turning it into gravy.
DeleteLove, Muv
Wow, that's not just a teapot with cauliflowers painted on it...it's a teapot that IS a cauliflower. Original.
