THE ALBINI SPOON REST - in 'Blue Rutile + Honey Flux'

Simple, functional, and quietly refined – the ALBINI Spoon Rest is thrown on the wheel with a smooth round form and a gently carved lip to cradle a spoon just where you need it. Inside, a spiral pattern nods to the making process, echoing the motion of the wheel and adding soft texture for the glaze to break across.

Named after Franco Albini, whose work paired honest materials with modernist clarity, this piece is small but considered. A practical object that understands its place – clean lines, minimal footprint, and a focus on utility without sacrificing character. It keeps your counter tidy, but it’s not just there to be helpful. Like Albini’s designs, it earns its spot with quiet confidence.

‘Blue Rutile + Honey Flux’ glaze is glossy, layered, and full of movement. ‘Blue Rutile’ brings deep, shifting blues that break into soft patterns and textures – a little bit stormy in places. Layered over ‘Honey Flux’, the tone softens into a milky, baby blue, with hints of purple-brown surfacing on edges and textured areas. A glaze with mood and motion – fluid, reactive, and never quite the same twice.

Each one is handmade, so no two are exactly alike – slight variations in shape, texture and glaze are all part of the charm. Made from durable ceramic, it’s dishwasher safe and designed to be used daily, not tucked away. Built to last, not throw away.
