Purple Post-modern Tea Pot by Pierre Casenove for Salins Studio, France 1980s

Purple tea pot designed by Pierre Casenove for Salins Studio, circa 1980s France.

The purple body of this tea pot has the mass and energy of a streamline locomotive with its steaming spout. The flat base and long arched handle make it look like a flattening iron. All of them in the language of speed and modern energy, some power machines that inspired a massively elegant way of living in the post post-modern age.

Pierre Casenove had also designed exceptional pieces for the french company Fondica, and produced many exhibitions.
