NEW YORK--()--Ellen DeGeneres, the world renowned and beloved television host and entrepreneur, who recently partnered with Royal Doulton, releases a full tableware collection. The ED Crafted by Royal Doulton Collection expands the ED by Ellen brand into contemporary tableware, allowing consumers to embrace and express their own sense of style and individuality through all parts of their lives. The tableware collection is inspired by both Ellen and Royal Doulton’s love for artisanal, yet simple designs.

Ellen’s style and personality, which is a perfect fit with Royal Doulton, sit at the heart of the collection, inspiring each and every pattern, texture and color throughout the relaxed and original designs.

THE TABLEWARE COLLECTION

Handcrafted and artisanal qualities are very much at the forefront, creating a unique collection of eight different tableware designs and a range of mix and match sets that allows consumers to express their own personality through the various elements of the designs.

Textured Tableware

Featuring four different patterns in four unique colors, the range is inspired by Ellen’s love of nature while highlighting natural imperfections. The textured patterns in the range offer a color palette and texture to suit all interior styles. All items are sold individually ($10-$14.50) or in 16 piece sets ($167).

  • Polar Blue – Created with a series of concentric dots and lines, the Polar Blue collection highlights one of Ellen’s favorite words, kindness, adding an element of charm and delight to the collection.
  • Cobalt Blue – Featuring a bolder aesthetic, the hand drawn chevrons and lines are reminiscent of batik fabrics and textile prints, which Ellen takes great inspiration from.
  • Soft White – With a softer design, this collection has hand drawn lines picked out in a subtle taupe color, creating an understated, classic appeal.
  • Charcoal Grey – Showcasing a sophisticated feathered detail, with an organic, natural and timeless feel.

Brush Stroke Tableware

A collection of tableware designs in a selection of four distinct colored glazes - Cobalt Blue, Polar Blue, Charcoal Grey and Soft White. The collection has a hand brushed rim, making each piece unique. Each item in the collection is glazed by hand, revealing the stoneware beneath on the mug and bowl, giving each piece a natural contrast of matte and shine.

The Brush Stroke patterns are sold as 16 piece sets (11” plates x4, 8.5” plates x4, cereal bowls x4, mugs x4) for $167.

Mix & Match Sets (Accent Collections)

Bringing Ellen’s personality to life, the ‘Mix & Match Sets’ features Ellen’s favourite sentiment – love. Three uniquely different illustrated designs create statement pieces for any home. The sets of 4 plates, bowls or mugs are comprised of 4 individual designs in each set, all of which mix together perfectly, but can also be layered back into the rest of the tableware collection.

  • Blue Love – The individual ‘Love’ designs of each plate, bowl and mug are inspired by Ellen’s love of nature, showcasing wild flowers and the countryside in cobalt blue illustrations. Made in the same way as the textured patterns, the accents range has the same debossed feel, giving the individual designs depth and tactile beauty.
  • Signature – Using artwork inspired by Ellen’s favorite prints, the red, grey and taupe hand drawn graphic details bring to life Ellen’s sense of style.
  • Cave Paintings – Unique, hand drawn animal characters are inspired by Ellen’s love for art. The centuries old drawings stand the test of time and add a unique element of interest to any interior.
