Zemaitis on Wright
Design expert James Zemaitis offers insight on collecting Russell Wright dinnerware, from yard sales to the Met
Design Detectives is a made-at-home video series featuring insights and tips on important design works, hosted by some of today’s leading experts. Each episode, a specialist welcomes us into their world to offer a short, intimate look at some of the most collectible objects in the design landscape today.
For our second installment, James Zemaitis, Director of Museum Relations at R & Company, talks teapots—and explains how Russell Wright dinnerware can still be found (with some luck!) at both local yard sales and in major museums like the Met and the MoMA.
