The V&A range consists of four striking saucers to pair with his signature gold and platinum reflective teacups, as well as four decorative mugs. The teacups and saucers are a development of Richard’s first collection, 'Reflect', which launched in 2013. When the reflective cups are placed onto the patterned antique saucer, they perfectly mirror the design below, making it appear as though the pair have always belonged together.
To bring the range to life, Richard has partnered with illustrator Chris Martin and as always, the phenomenally skilled potters of Stoke-on-Trent, the home of British ceramics. “We are excited to be working with Richard, who has a deep appreciation of fine porcelain and has captured and applied some wonderful details from the exceptional V&A ceramics collection. The patterns provide harmony and suit his rather tantalizing signature cups and saucers. We are delighted that the addition of mugs will make the designs and products accessible to a broader customer,” said Lauren Sizeland, Head of Business Development, V&A.
To complement the mugs, teacups and saucers, Richard Brendon offers a full range of Reflect teaware in gold and platinum, which are guaranteed to make a statement at any afternoon tea.
The full collection will be available on richardbrendon.com and in the V&A Shop from the 10th of September, 2021. The collection will also be available from leading worldwide retailers.
