Remodelista Reconnaissance: Bright-Colored Pitchers for Summers Outside

Ever since Margot’s profile on An Architect’s Colorful Kitchen in a London High-Rise published last week, we’ve been smitten by the vintage Dansk enameled pitchers spotted on the modular shelves. Candy-colored and nearly indestructible, they are, by our measure, the perfect summer pitchers.

But where to procure them? Read on.

Above: There are plenty of one-off Dansk originals to be found with some mild Internet scouring, and until recently, that was it—the design has been out of production for 50 years. But as it happens, Food52 is also rereleasing the original Jens Quistgaard design from 1956 in four hues: chili red, teal, white, and yellow (shown). The Dansk Købenstyle Wrapped Handle Water Pitcher is $95, with wrapped handle and black rim, available for pre-order now. Fill with lemonade or flowers.
