Pretty Woman Garden Tool Set


May be this set is something for Mother’s Day? Pretty Useful Tools?
Wild & Wolf have collaborated with designer Celia Birtwell to produce a range of home and garden tools in floral prints: These stylish one-piece aluminium tools are lightweight and strong with an ergonomic grip. The garden tools (with a hand trowel and a fork) are featuring some of Celia’s most favorite prints, sourced by Celia herself from her archives and sketchbooks. Where to buy: www.livingroomshop.ch in Basel and Zurich. CHF 38.—

An icon of British fashion and design, Celia Birtwell has been described as one of the most influential textile designer of her generation, and has dressed everyone from royalty to rock stars in a career that has spanned over 40 years. She was the muse of painter David Hockney and is famed for her gorgeous hand-drawn prints, inky florals in cream and aztec prints. I will write about her beautiful dresses later on this blog.


Also by Wild and Wolf:


Wild and Wolf have also collaborated with Victoria and Albert Museum in London to produce a range of home and garden tools in three classic prints: Cray, Anemone & Daisy by William Morris who is synonymous with the Arts and Crafts Movement and the Victorian era. Pretty Useful Tools. Where to buy: www.livingroomshop.ch in Basel and Zurich. CHF 58.--.
