LOEWE UNVEILS ITS 2025 SALONE DEL MOBILE TEAPOT COLLECTION

words by NATALIE GAL

For Salone del Mobile 2025, LOEWE TEAPOTS: a collection of teapots specially developed by 25 artists, designers, and architects will go on view at the Palazzo Citterio in Milan from 8–13 April 2025. It will be the house’s ninth exhibition at the international furniture fair, which enables the brand to venture into creative experiments with artists, expanding on generations of design and craft knowledge.

LOEWE will also present teapots produced in collaboration with Spanish artisans using Galician clay in either a raw finish or a choice of silver or gold glazes, which take inspiration from the handcrafted ceramic tiles that adorn CASA LOEWE store facades.

Each artist has taken a unique approach to the teapot. Together, the works reimagine the vessel’s sculptural form, drawing on the varied and rich traditions of tea-making and culture found around the world. While many of the artists have chosen to work with mediums traditionally associated with teapots, including porcelain and ceramic, they have each taken a unique and different approach to the treatment of their materials. The works on display feature a variety of glazes, finishes, and innovative textures. An intriguing variety of techniques are used, with some teapots having woven leather handles or frayed ribbons of clay wrap surrounding them.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a selection of homewares produced by LOEWE for Salone, including coasters made from woven leather, tea cosies, and a selection of leather botanical charms featuring camomile, strawberries, bergamot flowers, and tea bags. LOEWE’s 2025 Salone del Mobile exhibition reflects the brand’s continued investment in crafts and dedication to working with artists within and beyond its immediate output.
