Seconds Tall Teapot - Goldfinch

First to recommend

Description

Products that are “seconds” are products that are not quite right. Jason Miller's tea set challenges the rules that surround modern day consumer items. Who says the decoration has to be in the center? Who says a whole bird is better than half a bird? Made through conventional methods of mass production, the decals on Jason Miller's tea set are intentionally applied "incorrectly."

Fertile Garden Woodgrain Platter

First to recommend

Description

When creating a copper engraving from an existing picture, it was quite common for 18th centuray engravers to attach the image with tacks or small nails to a pin-board in front of the worktable. It is this moment that has been captured in the décor "Woodgrain with Landscapes and Gold Edge". The "sheets" depicting the landscape are partially torn at the edge, as the sheets from which one copied in the workshop would also be worn from repeated use.
