Royal Doulton has teamed up with Ellen DeGeneres to debut a full tableware collection just in time for Ambiente 2017. The collection, dubbed “ED Ellen DeGeneres,” offers eight different designs with a unique range of design influences.
Among DeGeneres’ sources for inspiration for the collection are African themes, mid-century artists and designers, and the very blend of natural materials and finishes employed. All of the pieces in the ED collection display a noticeable effort to show off artisanal elements and, as a result, each piece feels unique.
The ED Ellen DeGeneres line is offered in two color schemes, either blue or neutral, with individual pieces accented with whimsical designs: blue polar dots, cobalt blue chevron, cave paintings, and even taupe striping.
Royal Doulton has been crafting fine tableware and interiors since 1815. The London-based brand has a full stable of famous collaborative designers, including Baber & Osgerby, Hemingway Design, and celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.
