Lana Filippone, an artist based in Toronto, Canada, and a ceramic graduate from the Sheridan Institute: Crafts and Design program, has won top honors at the Not Forkchops design competition for Imm-Living, a design company also based in Toronto. Lana Filippone has created a line of cob holders fit for the hipster. Made out of white porcelain, they fit in perfectly with Imm-Living's other offerings.
From a couple of hungry T-Rexes to a pair of old revolvers, Lana Filippone got very creative when it comes to this kitchen tool staple. Chowing down on corn has never been more fun. Excitingly, the playful cob holders will be made available for purchase soon enough. Until then, they fit into a complementary Imm-Living collection of goods that will certainly whet people's appetite for more.
