Anna Wintour’s Favorite Designer Gets Into Limited-Edition Dinnerware
These Plates are Gold
By Rebecca Sherman //
Interior designer Jeffrey Bilhuber, a top colorist and all-American classicist, has won the adoration of Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, who hired Manhattan-based Bilhuber to design her country house.
“Jeffrey is great at taking one’s own taste and making it better,” Wintour later raved.
Collaboration is Bilhuber’s strong suit. His latest project is a porcelain dinner service created with wallpaper legend de Gournay. Designed by Bilhuber and handmade in Beijing’s historic Imperial Jingdezhen studios, the 35-piece Alchemy collection has been added to de Gournay’s permanent collection of wallpapers, fabrics and porcelains.
The dinnerware flirts on the edge of maximalism, with molten gold and vivid botanical motifs that reference full-bodied tulips in Dutch still-life paintings. Each limited-edition service is numbered; changes and customizations are encouraged.
Six-place serving $45,000 offered through Culp Associates.
