"I’ll have what the swan is having. Adam Hammerman presents a strangely elegant take on England’s favorite bit of kitchenware, the teapot. It would be a strange feeling drinking from the mouth of this beautiful animal, but in-between tips we’ve got a wonderful work of art to lay the eyes upon in Tea Time bliss. From designer Adam Hammerman: “Cigno is a form development project working around the framework of a teapot. The form is meant to give viewers a feast for all senses: sight, touch, emotional response.”" - Bibi from Bookmarklet
