- My new Keith Brymer Jones fruit bowl
- AND my new Keith Brymer Jones Mug...
Look LOOK at these little beauties-for me this is pure, unadulterated HEART SKIPPITY STUFF!
Wow wow wow-ive been a fan of Keiths work for a few years now, but, its pricey to say the least-so i never thought id actually own a piece. Let alone two pieces?!!
So-i hear you cry-whats the story? Well girls, if you hadnt guessed, good old TK Maxx has gone and pulled a blinder again!! I only 'nipped' in their to look for a bath ladder for the new bathroom...and of course i had to have a browse..which is when i fell in love. I adore this huge white HAND THROWN ceramic bowl, i guess you could use it to serve salad on a summers day-or fruit salad..but for now its beaming its calming whiteness into my lounge as a fruit bowl. I adore the little hand carved hearts-they sing to me-you can see them better in the close up photo.
So the story goes, i spotted the mug first-along with all the other mugs, and instantly recognised it..Then further along the same shelf, a little cereal bowl-the same blue as my mug(swoon!)-Basically a mini version of the big white bowl, perfect for 'bits' in my new bathroom i thought, BUT, the price tag said 12.99, yes, nearly thirteen earth pounds for teeny tiny cereal bowl-i believe you can probably buy a whole dinner service for that price in Ikea. Then, with my beady i, i spotted the big white bowl-with a price tag of -you guessed it 12.99. So, i headed(speedily)to the till to have the prices checked-lo and behold the manageress said they were marked at that price, so, thats how much they were. You could have blown me down with a feather!
Now i know less is more, but really, in this case-its not. I know its a little bit silly getting this giddy over some china, but ive hankered over this particular china for a looong time, and never thought id own a piece.
If you click on the link at the top of the post you can have a look at the other bits on the website keith sells through, and learn a bit about him.
I wasnt leaving the mug behind, in that perfect blue-for 2.99!!!!!!1
Can you see the little hearts?

TK Maxx is brilliant isn't it? I often find a little gem when I'm browsing in there.Glad you found those lovelies.
Have a good week. :0)
Love the fact they're decorated with hearts.
TK Maxx is one of my favourite shops...but I hope the assistant saw and agreed how ridiculous that pricing was.
Enjoy your goodies. xx
Hi Andi-like i said in the post, the manageress just sai 'well if thats the ticket price' then thats how much the are'...and made no further comment-strange eh?!xxx
I stupidly managed to delete tracys comment-which read:

I found some Bridgewater in TK Maxx once. Needless to say I didn't leave it behind. I love the little hearts that are dotted about on your new pieces. It's so exciting to be find something you've really really wanted and at a great price too.
I can't say I've ever heard of Keith Brymer Jones, but I'll definitely keep an eye out in my local as they are a gorgeous design!
Hi Kirsty! We have the bowl in blue in our TK Maxx! If you want it let me know!!
