There is something poetic about lilac and pastel colours in glassware. It is subtle, almost elusive, a color that suggests calm and reverie. The
Sogni d’Oriente Teapot, designed by
Alessandra Baldereschi for
Ichendorf Milano, embodies this delicate balance. More than a vessel, it is an object that shapes atmosphere: softening the space around it, lending a quiet rhythm to the act of brewing tea. Perfect for
elegant tableware enthusiasts and lovers of
cups collections, it combines design and utility seamlessly.
Material excellence
Made of borosilicate glass, the teapot combines lightness with strength. Resistant to thermal shock, it accommodates the ritual of hot infusions while maintaining a refined presence. Its form is minimal yet unmistakably oriental in inspiration: a silhouette that recalls traditional
teaware but stripped to its essence, leaving only balance and clarity.
A palette of possibilities
The lilac edition stands alongside variants in green and matte green. Lilac evokes intimacy and calm, perfect for quiet evenings and reflective moments, turning each cup of tea into a gentle pause in the day. Green brings freshness and vitality, connecting the drinker with nature and the energy of morning rituals, making beverages feel vibrant and uplifting. Matte Green offers understated elegance, softening the table setting while maintaining a contemporary, sophisticated presence, ideal for serene and mindful tea moments.
Context and harmony
Alessandra Baldereschi designs objects that live in relation to others. This teapot can be paired with the
Ichendorf cups and mugs from the
Sogni d'Oriente collection, but also
Ichendorf stem glasses and
Ichendorf bottles, creating a complete table landscape. Yet it also has the ability to stand alone, an accent piece that commands attention by virtue of its color and form.
Design as atmosphere
To hold this teapot is to encounter a piece of
Alessandra Baldereschi x Ichendorf’s philosophy: design that does not shout but whispers. It invites stillness, reflection, and appreciation of the ordinary moment. In lilac glass, the
Sogni d’Oriente Teapot is not just an accessory for tea, but a companion to the ritual of slowing down.
