The Objects Collection, designed for Kaikado, complements the company’s distinctive, centuries-old idiom – the tea caddy – with contemporary everyday objects created using materials that age with grace to ensure lasting value as family heirlooms. The collection includes a teapot, water pitcher, trays, vases, precious boxes, milk jug, champagne and wine coolers. All products are handmade and crafted by dedicated artisans at the Kaikado workshop in Kyoto.
Following the success of the Objects Collection, Kaikado has brought further life to the Objects Collection by introducing silverware. Today, the collection is included in the permanent collections of Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and Designmuseum Danmark in Copenhagen.
