IN CELEBRATION of Orla
, 06 April 2011 –
Over the past decade Orla Kiely's designs have included stationery with the Museum of Modern Art, funky laptop bags with Apple, and a digital radio with Pure. Most recently she teamed up with Peugeot and launched a car that had us seriously considering a trade in...

Of course, there are less expensive ways of having Orla and her irresistible patterns in your life, and these Orla Kiely kitchenware must-haves really caught our eye this week...

Available from contemporary lifestyle store GEAR, design queen Orla’s iconic multi-stem leaf print is a modern day classic. Its unique retro styling has helped the range earn space on the shelves of the most chic designer shops around the globe.
And, priced at just £8.50 for a mug, they make a perfect alternative to a chocolate egg for Easter.

But with such a range of Orla Kiely prints on the shelves in GEAR, it’s a shame to stop at just one. Why not make a design statement on a kitchen shelf or window ledge with three or four? They’re just too pretty to hide away in the cupboards!

We absolutely love these stunning linear stem mustard storage jars with fitted wooden tops, priced at £21, as well as the bold brown geometric Abacus Flower milk jugs (a snip at £18).
It's definitely time for a Spring clear out to make some room and celebrate Orla!
