Rosenthal's most tropical collections against Wanderlust
Dream travel gets a whole new meaning in these times. We have put together the most exotic collections for a journey in your head:
Rosenthal "Palm Leaves"/Design: Emilio Pucci
Rosenthal is reviving its cooperation with the legendary Italian fashion brand Emilio Pucci this year. The "Palm Leaves" decor is a re-edition of the 1967 "Foglie" collection, inspired by the travels that Marquese Emilio Pucci undertook in Africa, Indonesia and South America. On these journeys he collected new colours and shapes, which he used in the development and production of his prints, and which were also laid out in colour palettes created especially for this purpose. The prints used in "Palm Leaves" and reproduced on the vases are a detail of the original design, which depicts the profiles of two women wearing headdresses in an abstract way. Each article bears the Rosenthal logo and the signature "Emilio Pucci" as an element integrated into the decoration, a specially made stamp that highlights the collaboration and marks each piece as limited.
Rosenthal Heritage Collection - Turandot: East meets West
Inspired by Giacomo Puccini's opera of the same name, the Turandot decor is a homage to 18th century chinoiseries, which already played an important role in Rosenthal's designs of the late 19th century. A lavish display of peony blossoms, bamboo and ginkgo leaves in delicate colours meets golden dragonflies. The background for the poetic porcelain paintings is a white or dark blue background, framed by a narrow gold rim. Cinti says that the idea for the complex decor came to him when he remembered a visit to the shore of the West Lake in Hangzhou, China. The intertwining of western and eastern elements is emphasized by the expansion of the collection to include elements of classical Chinese dining culture such as rice and soup bowls, porcelain spoons, chopstick holders and tea tins.
Versace Jungle Animalier from Rosenthal meets Versace
The latest Rosenthal meets Versace collection "Jungle Animalier" combines the famous "Jungle" print by Versace with animal patterns and traditional Medusa accents.
Inspired by the iconic design that Versace showed at the Spring-Summer 2020 fashion show in Milan and the book "South Beach Stories", a legendary photo book of the Versace family, Jungle Animalier scores with bright colours on fine porcelain. The collection includes a range of plates, coffee and tea sets, vases and decorative accessories for the home.
