Unveiling the limited-edition Archiv Collection, a new collaboration between Pamono and the venerable KPM

The Pamono x KPM Archiv Collection comprises four designs that our own Editor-in-Chief, Wava Carpenter, selected from the KPM archives—designs that haven’t been produced by KPM since the last century, between 1908 and the 1951. Each of the four Deco-esque vessels will be offered exclusively on Pamono in a collectible edition of five. Wava was drawn to these particular designs—out of hundreds of beautiful options—because they represent an uncharacteristic moment in KPM’s long history, which she explains, “embraces a trend toward modern yet glamorous, vibrantly hued graphic abstraction.” She adds, “The color palettes may be nearly one hundred years old, but they feel strikingly contemporary.”
