Beautiful tableware

I love the idea of highly decorated and patterned tableware, whether hand-painted or transfer-printed. And gorgeous mugs to drink tea from... as long as it's bright and colourful and full of pattern!

Kim Parker

Kim Parker is one of those designers whose work will always be loved for its spontaneity, happy colours and originality. I haven't ever seen any design that looks so natural and hand-drawn which can be applied as decoration to almost anything - rugs, cushions, tableware, cards, paintings and furnishing fabrics. (I would love some bedsheets designed by Kim!) She has now been featured in many homes magazines around the world and her designs are much loved. She has even illustrated some children's books!
