It started with a lemon

Our very first Icon Cup, and a Kiwi summer's day with a basket of lemons.

    The backyard

    In summer, the backyard at Parable House felt dreamy, almost surreal. The perfect place to shoot our very first Icon Cup.

  2. A Lemon Icon Cup of iced water held in a lap on white linen

    Slow pages

    Birds chirping, iced water in hand, sitting in the garden chair with a good book. That's all I need.

  3. A straw basket of lemons, a Lemon Icon Cup of iced water and a plate of sweets on a tiled garden table

    A little picnic

    All set out on the tiled table: a basket of lemons, something sweet and a cup of iced lemon water, with an espresso on the side.

  4. A Lemon Icon Cup with ice, lemon and a lemon glass straw on a round blue stool

    Just sit

    Ice, a slice of lemon and the lemon straw from our Fruit Straw Set. Then just sit, like the little stool says, and enjoy it slowly.

  5. Stirring an iced latte in a Lemon Icon Cup with a lemon glass straw

    Iced latte, too

    Not just for lemon water. A shot of espresso over iced milk, with the lemon straw to stir it all together.

  6. Lemon Icon Cups of iced latte and lemon water on a long timber table with lemons, cakes and a straw basket

    Where it all began

    The Lemon Icon Cup came first because it was Kiwi summer, my favourite season. It always feels unhurried, and to me, nothing says it like a lemon.

Questions

Will the lemon icons come off?

No. They're glass, fused in while the cup is hot, so they won't peel, fade or wash off.

Can I put hot drinks in the Lemon Icon Cup?

It's made for cold drinks. Soda-lime glass can crack with sudden heat, so iced lattes, lemon water and juice are perfect.

Where is the lemon straw from?

It's from our Fruit Straw Set: four glass straws with a lemon, strawberry, banana and cherry.
