Sugar Pot – Silk Gold by Roberto Cavalli Home

Sugar Pot in Silk Gold is Roberto Cavalli at the table: the house's print-driven glamour, rendered in fine bone china.

One piece, Ø 3.3 × H 3.5 in (Ø 8.4 × H 8.9 cm).

The Design Story

Silk Gold is Cavalli at his most restrained: white bone china, a single golden thread and the RC logo. It leaves room for the rest of your table to speak. Roberto Cavalli opened his house in Florence in 1970, made animal print his signature, and in 2012 took it home with the launch of Roberto Cavalli Home at the Salone del Mobile in Milan.

Why You'll Love It

The design does the decorating, so even a simple coffee looks considered. Bone china is lighter and whiter than ordinary porcelain, which makes the print read crisply. The gold detailing catches candlelight beautifully. It mixes easily with plain whites or with other Cavalli patterns. And it carries the name of one of Italy's boldest fashion houses.

Made for Real Life

Made for sugar cubes or granulated sugar. The distributor doesn't publish care instructions. We recommend washing by hand in warm, soapy water with a soft sponge, no abrasive pads, and no microwave (the gold decoration). Avoid sudden temperature changes and stack with a cloth between pieces (our advice).

Worth Every Penny

Brought out twice a week for ten years, $170 comes to about $0.16 per use (our math).

Questions We Hear Most

What's the story behind the Silk Gold design?

Silk Gold is Cavalli at his most restrained: white bone china, a single golden thread and the RC logo. It leaves room for the rest of your table to speak.

How should I care for the Silk Gold sugar pot?

The distributor doesn't publish care instructions. We recommend washing by hand in warm, soapy water with a soft sponge, no abrasive pads, and no microwave (the gold decoration). Avoid sudden temperature changes and stack with a cloth between pieces (our advice).

Is the Silk Gold sugar pot gift-ready?

No gift box is listed by the distributor. It ships in protective packaging, and we are happy to add a gift note.

What goes well with the Silk Gold sugar pot?

Other pieces from Cavalli's Silk Gold service, or plain white tableware if you want the pattern to stand out. Mixing two Cavalli patterns, such as an animal print with a white-and-gold design, also works well.

What are the exact measurements of the Silk Gold sugar pot?

Ø 3.3 × H 3.5 in (Ø 8.4 × H 8.9 cm).

Why does it matter that the Silk Gold sugar pot is bone china?

Bone china is porcelain made with bone ash, which makes it whiter, lighter and more translucent than ordinary porcelain, so patterns and metallic details look crisper. The distributor lists this piece as fine bone china.

Why We Love It

Cavalli never did quiet for its own sake. Even the white-and-gold pieces have attitude, and the animal prints are pure runway. Bringing them to the table is the easiest way to live with that energy every day.
