Van Gogh Irises Tea Set*The Met Store Best Sale

$39

Exhibiting a detail from Vincent van Gogh’s (Dutch, 1853—1890) Irises (1890), a beloved still life in The Met collection, our tea set includes a tea-infusing covered mug, a tea towel, and a tin of The Met x Harney & Sons Still Life Chamomile. For this extraordinary composition, the artist sought to achieve a “harmonious and soft” effect by placing the “violet” flowers against a “pink background,” though the red pigments he employed have since faded.
