This ''Handle With Care'' teapot is a playful yet thoughtful reinterpretation of a classic Chinese teapot. Dutch designer Richard Hutten takes the traditional form, historically cast iron, and transforms it into a sleek, modern object made from fine white porcelain. Rather than using a conventional teapot handle, Hutten borrows the ergonomic grip of an old-fashioned clothes iron, rendered in a bold bright red that contrasts vividly with the smooth porcelain body. This unexpected handle not only adds a touch of humor and surprise but also serves a functional purpose: its shape and color cue the user to “handle with care”, helping you safely lift and pour hot tea. The teapot’s proportions are generous yet compact, with dimensions around 21.5 × 20.4 × 13 cm and a lightweight presence that belies its porcelain construction. Its rounded, slightly flattened body subtly echoes the silhouette of a curling stone, while the short spout and striking red handle make it both a practical vessel and a sculptural accent in any kitchen or tea ritual. This ''Handle With Care'' teapot is in new and unused condition. Delivered with original packaging. Capacity: 0,5L Richard Hutten (b. 1967) founded his own design studio in 1991 and quickly became one of the Netherlands’ most internationally recognized designers. His multidisciplinary work spans furniture, interiors, products, and exhibitions, and is held in the collections of prestigious institutions such as the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, the Vitra Design Museum, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Hutten’s designs are known for their wit, clarity, and conceptual depth, and Handle With Care reflects his approach to design as both functional and thought-provoking.
