Astier de Villatte Marie-Antoinette Hand-Glazed Ceramic Teapot
£355
-
It’s quite fitting that this teapot from Astier de Villatte is called Marie-Antoinette, as many designs from this ceramicist feel like a vintage relic from her reigning years. It’s handcrafted in black terracotta clay with a bright-white glaze, while the former Queen of France’s head takes the form of a finial.

Meet the maker:
Astier de Villatte
Old friends Ivan Pericoli and Benoît Astier de Villatte met at the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, leading to the launch of Astier de Villatte in 1996. Since the beginning, they’ve been charmed with ideas of the imperfect, finding beauty in uneven glazes, dark pockmarks and subtle ripples. But these details only emphasise the craft tale behind each piece – stories that start with a single sheet of black terracotta clay extracted from Parisian quarries. They follow traditional Roman methods to bring each ‘dream object’ to life, shaping and inscribing each one with the potter’s initials and finishing with a high-shine white porcelain glaze.
