How ‘Alice in Wonderland’ inspired an earthenware teapot that blushes when the tea is ready.
Industrial design for Royal Boch (2000)
Early concept sketches.
The oversized handle ensures a comfortable, effortless grip, while the spout is elegantly designed to prevent drips and splashes.
Inspired by the whimsical world of Alice in Wonderland, the generous proportions and colour-changing lid knob transform this teapot into a statement piece that brings a touch of magic to every tea ritual.
The lid knob is made out of polypropylene, charged with 2 pigments amongst which, one is thermochromic.
The material protects the fingers from heat.
The pigments change from blue to pink in about 3,5 minutes, indicating that the infusion is ready.
