Product Information

Full details

This Serax Teapot - Blossom Milk is for discerning individuals who appreciate artisanal design and high-quality porcelain tableware. Its key benefit is its unique artistic collaboration between Marni and Serax, offering a collectible piece that elevates any tea service. A potential caveat is its delicate nature, requiring careful handling and cleaning. This teapot is part of a 120-piece collection, featuring decal-applied flower motifs designed by Marni's Creative Director, Francesco Risso. Each piece is crafted from glazed fine bone china with intentionally asymmetrical shapes to highlight the porcelain's quality. This hand-finished teapot boasts a low, spherical silhouette and the 'Blossom Milk' motif, a fresh ring of florals gracing the lid.
