Watering Kettle Cans by Antonio Arico

Posted: 09 Aug 2011 02:16 AM PDT



Created by Antonio Aricò in collaboration with Garage Design, the transformable 'watering kettle cans' unite the aesthetics of tea kettles and watering cans into a multifunctional object.

The ceramic pieces are cast from two reappropriated antique molds for english tea kettles. A removable tip placed on the end of the spout transforms the kettle into a watering can.

Changing the concept and the use of these two common objects: a watering can and a kettle was a way for Antonio to magnify our usual life and putting some fantasy and magic in boring gestures.
