Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodovar and Italian bean purveyor Illy Coffee have joined forces in celebration of Almodovar’s many-times star and long-time muse, actress Penelope Cruz.
Images of the Live Flesh/All About My Mother/ Volver actress adorn a new cup and saucer, part of the “Illy Art Collection” series that has famous artists (Koons! Schnabel!) designing chinaware to drink your espresso out of.
Almodovar shows Cruz in a set of Warhol-like photo images, promoting the Spanish siren’s moody beauty and, coincidentally, Almodovar’s upcoming fall release, Abrazos Rotos (Broken Embraces). Yes, Cruz stars.
The limited edition cup and saucer combo is signed by Almodovar, and is yours for $60. Click here to have Cruz show up in your kitchen, too.
