Style note — homewares in the period between 1950s to 1970s were often produced in Modernist style. Defined by neat lines, bold and unusual colours and fairly minimalist shapes. All this often makes Modernist items very functional and timeless.
Facts of Lavish Cool fact — "As useful as a chocolate teapot” means pretty useless. A functioning 100% chocolate teapot was made in England in 2014 and it lasted for two minutes.
