A creative collaboration that boldly reinterprets everyday objects
Born from the collaboration between Seletti and Diesel Living, these mugs from the Classics on Acid collection reinterpret an everyday object with an immediately striking creative audacity. Their deliberately distorted forms, wavy edges, silhouettes that seem to have melted in the heat of too long a night, sculpted handles with unexpected curves, evoke precious ancient artifacts that time would have slowly shaped. Yet, far from being fragile objects to be contemplated from afar, these mugs are meant to be used daily, held firmly in hand, for a morning coffee or an afternoon tea.
Varied patterns and surprising details for a unique visual experience
What distinguishes these pieces is the intensity of their cobalt blue decoration on an immaculate white background. Each model tells a different story: dense floral and vegetal arabesque patterns, oriental landscape scenes with architecture and palm trees, geometric interlaces inspired by Delft porcelain, or remarkably precise animal compositions. Some models reveal an additional surprise inside, a blue trellis decoration edged with a golden net, transforming each sip into a small discovery. Others feature a golden or finely decorated handle that further blurs the lines between decorative art and functional tableware.
Pieces to mix for an eclectic and characterful composition
Equally at home on a carefully set table as in a collector's display case, these mugs assert their character in any environment. They can be mixed and matched with other pieces from the collection to create a decidedly unconventional table setting, where each model, though distinct, combines with the others to form an offbeat and irresistible harmony.
