Ou are unlikely to find a more entertaining way of storing a kitchen roll. A wonderfully quirky rare Peter Mook wall-mounted kitchen roll holder, made from porcelain and modelled as a wonderfully cheerful pig chef complete with whites, chef's hat and red neckerchief. His outstretched hands hold the original wooden roller, transforming one of the kitchen's least exciting necessities into a genuinely fabulous piece of retro wall décor..
Created by British sculptor Peter Mook, known for his wonderfully characterful and often humorous figurative work, this is a fantastic example of his more unusual domestic pieces. Beautifully modelled in porcelain with bags of personality and great attention to detail, it's one of those objects that manages to be both genuinely useful and a bit bonkers at the same time.
Designed to hang on the wall, the kitchen roll sits between the figure's outstretched arms, turning an otherwise mundane household necessity into a fabulous piece of retro kitchen wall art. These are increasingly difficult to find, particularly in good condition, making this a brilliant piece for collectors of Peter Mook, unusual ceramics, vintage kitchenalia or anyone who simply likes their interiors to have a bit of humour and individuality. Easy to wall mount using two screws. A rare, funny and wonderfully decorative piece of 1970s British design that certainly won't go unnoticed. Very good vintage condition with minor age-related imperfections.
