We were lucky enough to collaborate with the iconic Gaetano Pesce on a collection of limited-edition ice buckets, a complement to our new Pink Moon rosé.

Bucket List

Gaetano Pesce is an icon. A prolific artist and enfant terrible of the design world, he's unafraid of experimentation, unlikely pairings and bright, bold color. With one playful stroke, he can elevate a daily object to an art form, and find a soulfulness therein. So when we decided to make ice buckets for our new Pink Moon rosé, it was no question who our dream collaborator would be. Flamingo Estate has always made it a mission to bring cultural luminaries into the garden, finding ways for art and nature to coalesce. The result: a transcendent ice bucket inspired by the golden ochres and camellia pinks of Spring gardens.

Behind the Scenes:
The Process and the Making

Pesce sketched the ice bucket in his studio. “Everything in daily life should be beautiful. You should be proud to put it on your table.”

One day last winter, Richard visited the 81-year old artist in his studio — a two-story loft overbrimming with the works of an alchemical mind.

Pesce's studio teems with bright colors and contagious optimism. Here, he and an assistant test a bubble gum pink cast.

Pesce’s vision for the ice buckets are a nod to their inherent use, with cues drawn from the bright, hot colors of Spring.

Details

Limited-edition ice buckets hand-poured by Gaetano Pesce in his New York City studio. Each bucket is one-of-a-kind, with unique color patterns, inspired by Spring gardens, and an all-over ice cube texture nods to the work's inherent functionality. Made of Pesce's signature poly resin.

Gaetano Pesce offers a message that mirrors the hope of Spring itself: “The future is a beautiful time.”
