ESQUIMAUX
Series of enamelled metal popsicle sticks for Esquimaux group show at gallery Le Palais, Neuchâtel
Inspired by the bold speckled esthetic and durable qualities of enamelled steel tableware, the smooth sticks are made to be collected after enjoying your ice cream. Each colour scheme represents a classic flavour which are, from left to right, stracciatella, mint chocolate, swiss chocolate and strawberry.
As part of the 2019 edition of the Printemps Culturel of the Neuchâtel region, whose theme was the Great North, 62 designers from Switzerland and around the world were invited by curators Denis Roueche and Prune Simon Vermot to rethink the classic ice cream stick.
In spring 2020, the entire collection was donated to the MUDAC as part of its contemporary design collection and displayed within the Extraordinary! exhibition.
