Mortlach
By
Felicia Ferrone
Felicia Ferrone’s approach to the design of her modern tableware, accessories and furniture is informed by her early experience as an architect in Milan, Italy. She realized nothing exists in a vacuum and learned to blur boundaries and challenge expectations, which comes through in her whimsical yet timeless designs. Ferrone’s award-winning work is in the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago; she’s been a jury member of prestigious design awards, such as The Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity; and she’s been recognized as one of 200 women who have shaped the history of design.

Design is audacious when it's bold and unconventional. When a piece is daring and
challenges the unexpected.
The Glassware
“The glass is named Cowie, after the founders of Mortlach. And the glass itself explores
both positive and negative space. It’s two cylinders that intersect. And through that it
allows for this experience of really savoring with your eyes the color of the whisky, as
well as being able to really open it up as you swirl it, because it gets to interact
against both walls of the glass. This glass—with essentially a hole in the
middle—strikes that balance of something that is audacious. It's the unconventional, the
unexpected, and yet it’s functional. Design should really be that.”
