Cooking with Design: Salam teapot by Guy Degrenne

Hello Design lover! To remind you that it is Friday, as always our section Cooking with Design. The protagonist of today is Salam, the teapot by Guy Degrenne, the French designer that I discovered during my visit to Milan Expo at the France stand .  Created in 1957, Salam has a timeless design thanks to its simple and modern lines.

The collection Salam, whom this teapot in porcelain is part, includes several accessories for a complete tea service. Salam is perfect for winter afternoons or evenings during it'is ideal for warming up and relaxing because it can retain heat for a longer time than normal teapots thanks to its specific features.Available in three colors, white, red and black with matt finish and in various sizes from 2 to 8 cups.I think I am going to heat water ... nice weekend my dear design lovers!

 

Buongiorno Design lover! A ricordarvi che è venerdì, come sempre la nostra rubrica Cooking with Design. Il protagonista di oggi è la teiera Salam di Guy Degrenne, designer francese che ho scoperto durante la mia visita ad Expo Milano allo stand della Francia.
