May We Interest You in a Gaetano Pesce Chair?
If not an Italian chair, perhaps some Italian plates or a teapot that looks expensive will strike your fancy.

If you crave luxury but prioritize design, then the world is technically your oyster when it comes to objects. This week, we’ve found something for everyone, from an Italian chair ripped straight from the runway to a teapot destined to become a classic.
Gaetano Pesce designed these playful chairs for the Bottega Veneta Spring 2023 presentation at Milan Fashion Week, and they are affordable if you squint (They’re not, but they are really lovely to look at.)
Come Stai? A chair by Gaetano Pesce with Matthieu Blazy for Bottega Veneta.Featured in the Summer 23 show, each chair is alike in material but unique in colour and form, celebrating variation and diversity.
Slightly less aspirational, this pedestal accent piece from Sarah Sherman Samuel is just the right amount of chunky and primitive to make your space feel "interesting," whatever that might mean to you.
An artful, sculptural accent, this pedestal offers function and form. Use as a display for a decorative accent or the short size can even be used as a side table to rest your drink on. We love them layered together as an artful vignette.
Caraway’s tea kettle now comes in white and black, as part of their Iconics collection. The black is expected, but the white? A risk you should be willing to take.
Meet your stovetop’s new centerpiece. Caraway’s Whistling Tea Kettle is a modern take on the classic kitchen essential, constructed with non-toxic materials to keep your boiled water clean and free of harmful chemicals.
Scented candles aren’t for everybody, but this room spray, new from Boy Smells, might be!
The resinous combination of sacred Japanese cypress and jasmine petals are uniquely wrapped in rich amber glow. Warm and meditative with an element of earthy spice and soft woodland moss.
The Vignelli Rainbow Stacking Dinnerware is a truly iconic design that is as practical as it is beautiful. Bonus: it’s melamine! Drop it on the kitchen floor! Serve chicken nuggets to your toddler!
Stacking Dinnerware was designed in 1964 by Massimo and Lella Vignelli and this multi-colored Rainbow version of the set was introduced by the Vignellis and the manufacturer Heller in 1971.
