2,500 colorful plates have hit Bernardaud just in time for the holidays—and they’re celebrating one of Jeff Koons’ most prized works.
The Tulips limited-edition collection references his work dating back to 1995-1998, which encompasses a bouquet of balloon tulips against a reflective background. Countless shapes and colors are cascaded from a kaleidoscopic-like image, celebrating fertility, beauty, and romance. In addition, Koons is also offering five other plates featuring Balloon Dog, Elephant, PlayDoh, Lips, and SplitRocker from his original “Celebration” series. His intention for this series was to be as objective as possible so that everyone was able to see the same thing, and share a universal experience. The 12.2-inch coupe service plates are available now in Bernardaud’s autum/winter 2015 collection.
