A LONG LUNCH WITH ELIZA HOPEWELL

MARCH 2022

Conceived as a joyful toast to the hopefulness of spring and drawing inspiration from the fabled garden of ancient philosopher Epicurus, Eliza Hopewell created limited edition tableware for a long lunch with 50 guests. Tessa Layzelle made the table linen and Mia Lillingston conjured up a feasting menu inspired by the art.
