Desert Plants Collection: Glass Cactus Tumblers by Ichendorf Milano

Born in Milan in 1975, she pursued her early artistic studies by successfully attending the Domus Academy in Milan, one of the world's finest design schools, with a cosmopolitan outlook.
She deepened her exploration of materials in Japan, in the Gifu district, home of ceramics in the Land of the Rising Sun, collaborating with various local companies and becoming familiar with production techniques and material characteristics.

As early as 2003, some of her works were selected to represent Young European Designers at the Seoul Design Festival; in 2004 the Bosco collection of seating pieces inspired by forest-green foliage was exhibited at the Dilmos gallery, with which she would collaborate for a long time, designing pieces such as the Robin table and the Reflective Wood arched mirror collection. In 2007 she was selected to exhibit at The New Italian Design show at the Triennale di Milano, an exhibition aimed at illustrating the shift from the past to the future of Italian design. That same year, the Soufflè armchair line was showcased at Made in Design Shanghai, one of the most prestigious design fairs in the world. The stunning Helix corkscrew took center stage in New York and Turin in 2008, and so on.

She has enjoyed prestigious collaborations with museums such as the Poldi Pezzoli, which in 2012 exhibited her Adele and Anita candle collection, as well as companies including Poem, Ichendorf, Coin Casa, Multiforme, Fabbian, Devecchi, Thun, Seletti and many others.

She has received countless tributes from the international press: Living Corriere in 2018, Interior Russia in 2020, Marie Claire Maison Japan, Elle Decor in 2018, Architectural Digest Italy and Spain, the New York Times and more.

By now iconic are the glasses, jugs and goblets, bottles, and borosilicate glass tumblers from the Animal Farm, Desert Plant, Botanica, Coral Reef, Dogs, Fruits And Flowers, Garden Pic Nic, GreenWood, Marine Garden, Memories, Sogni D'oriente, Tabby Cat, and Vegetables lines, which include teapots, tea infusers, sugar bowls, teaspoons, beautiful oil and vinegar cruets, mugs, cake stands, and the line inspired by Alice's colorful little mushrooms.

An unstoppable creativity that has produced memorable pieces for the home, the table, and home decor in general.
