Mid-way through the completely over-the-top, label oozing movie Carrie is offered breakfast in bed. My very savvy design friend Pam leans over and whispers "Eva Zeisel." I nod at the pretty pot nestled on the screen's serving tray. Then it happens...the teapot is switched! 3 times- for the love of Pete. As the scene cuts away to a reverse shot, the pot is different. I think this is so funny I laugh out- loud. Unfortunately, the scene is not a comic one. It is often referred to as a "tender moment." I should get out more.
I have been collecting her gorgeous wares for many years. Part of me was a little disappointed Crate and Barrel launched one of her lines. Too mass market I whined...she's special. It's hard to keep a good thing secret.
