The Ichendorf Vegetables teapot pepper brings a vibrant, joyful energy to the ritual of preparing tea. Designed by Alessandra Baldereschi and part of the Ichendorf Tea Sets family, it draws inspiration from the lively shape of a chili pepper, enclosed like a small glowing sculpture inside the glass body. Its cheerful detail, suspended within the transparent walls, transforms a functional object into an expressive centrepiece that brightens the table. Placed near clear pieces from the Ichendorf Tumblers & Glasses selection, it creates a harmonious blend of light, colour and playful proportions.

A refined object shaped over flame

Handmade and lampworked in borosilicate glass, the Vegetables teapot pepper embodies the delicate precision characteristic of the entire Ichendorf collection. The flame-working process shapes the spout, handle and domed lid with fluid gestures, creating smooth surfaces and crisp transparency. Borosilicate glass is ideal for hot beverages thanks to its thermal resistance and lightness, making the teapot comfortable to use in daily rituals. Dishwasher safe at low temperatures, it maintains its brightness over time, preserving the clarity needed for the chili pepper detail to stand out vividly.

A playful tribute to vegetable forms

At the heart of the design lies the chili pepper motif, a lively element that animates the teapot with warmth and humour. This miniature decoration, crafted with meticulous care, captures the distinctive curve and vibrant colour of the vegetable while softening it through the purity of the glass. The piece reflects the expressive sensibility of Alessandra Baldereschi design, where common ingredients are reinterpreted as small poetic accents inside functional objects. Whether used for herbal infusions, tea blends or light beverages, the teapot adds a gentle theatrical touch to the moment.

Its transparency allows the colour of the infusion to interact with the pepper detail, creating shifting reflections that make each pour feel special. The teapot pairs naturally with cups and mugs or Footed Plates from the Ichendorf Vegetables collection, forming a cheerful ensemble that enlivens the table. Its clear construction makes it suitable for both minimalist and richly decorated interiors, bringing a subtle but distinctive presence wherever it is placed.

A delightful companion for everyday pauses

Though artistic in appearance, the teapot is practical and reassuringly easy to handle. The handle sits comfortably in the hand, the spout ensures a steady pour, and the lid fits securely without disturbing the internal decoration. Slight handmade variations reveal the craftsmanship behind each piece, making this designer glass teapot a unique accessory for tea lovers. Whether enjoyed alone during quiet moments or used during convivial gatherings, it embodies the balance of creativity and functionality that defines Ichendorf Milano.
