Designed by John Loecke

The Certified International English Garden 16-piece dinnerware set is designed by John Loecke, in collaboration with Jason Oliver Nixon, of Madcap Cottage. The set is part of the duo's debut ceramic tabletop collection, which includes dinnerware and serveware.

Loecke and Nixon are the founders of John Loecke Inc., an interior design firm based in New York. Their designs reflect a respect for tradition, combined with bold colours and playful patterns. They aim to bring glamour and style to both contemporary and ultra-traditional homes. Loecke has expressed his dislike for beige and boring interiors, instead encouraging people to embrace colour and whimsy.

Loecke and Nixon have designed a range of spaces, from Manhattan aeries to beach houses and penthouses. They are inspired by the work of Dorothy Draper, who designed the Greenbrier resort in West Virginia. Their own Brooklyn living room is inspired by Draper's work, featuring a similar colour palette and pattern sensibility.

In addition to their interior design work, Loecke and Nixon have also curated a collection of home decor treasures for Madcap Cottage, including table lamps, accessories, and trinket trays. They encourage people to use accessories to tell their own personal brand story and create a unique, accumulated look.

Made from durable earthenware

The Certified International English Garden 16-piece dinnerware set is made from durable earthenware. Earthenware is a type of pottery that has been used for thousands of years and is known for its coarse grain clay, or terracotta composition. It is typically fired at lower temperatures than stoneware or porcelain, resulting in a more porous and brittle structure.

Due to its porous nature, earthenware is often glazed to strengthen and waterproof it. The Certified International English Garden set has been glazed, making it suitable for everyday use and giving it a vibrant, colourful appearance. The glazing process involves covering the earthenware with finely ground glass powder suspended in water and then firing it a second time, sealing the pores of the clay and creating a watertight surface.

Earthenware is generally easier to shape than other types of pottery due to its higher plasticity and is considered ideal for items that benefit from some level of water absorption, such as garden pots. However, its lower mechanical strength compared to bone china, porcelain, or stoneware makes it more susceptible to chipping and cracking.

The Certified International English Garden 16-piece dinnerware set combines functionality with a unique and inviting mix-and-match design, making it perfect for entertaining and everyday use. While earthenware may be more prone to damage than other types of pottery, proper care and handling can help extend the lifespan of this beautiful and functional dinnerware set.
