ABOUT PRODUCTID 23292
The spherical teapot, known as the original Henley Teapot TM by G&H Tea Services from 1978, is a hallmark of late 1970s British modernist design. The body, lid, spout, handle, and three ball-shaped feet are all crafted from brushed stainless steel, giving the piece a cool, satin silver sheen and a uniform matte texture. The design is dominated by the motif of the sphere—repeated in the teapot’s main body, its feet, and the lid’s knob. The handle forms a thick, curved tube that contrasts with the sharp, conical spout, highlighting a minimalist, sculptural geometry. Only minor surface marks typical of gentle use are visible; there are no major damages or signs of restoration. The overall condition is very good, with all original elements present.The teapot’s form echoes the spirit of the 1970s, when modernism embraced playful, industrial expressions. The steel spheres lift the vessel above the table’s surface, hinting at a lightness and a distance from traditional tea sets. The satin finish gently scatters light, while the geometric coherence recalls an era that valued both function and visual clarity. Though designed for daily use, the teapot carries a narrative of boldness and precision in British design.In an interior, the teapot can be paired with minimalist porcelain or stoneware, set on a simple wooden table where the steel finish will contrast with the natural grain. It would work well among tableware with restrained forms, or as an accent in a stark, modernist kitchen or dining area. It may also be combined with neutral-toned textiles and chrome or glass accessories to emphasize the object’s industrial yet timeless character.
