EMMA AND KAM YOUNG HAVE BROUGHT FALCON'S TRADITIONAL ENAMELWARE INTO THE 21ST CENTURY
With its instantly recognisable combination of ice white and deep blue, Falcon Enamelware has been a mainstay of the British kitchen since the 1920s. Emma Young, who now runs the business with her husband, Kam, tells us how they've brought the brand into the 21st century.
How did you first discover the Falcon Enamelware brand?
I’ve somehow subliminally been aware of ‘those white dishes with the blue rim’ for as long as I can remember. I assumed this was the case for everyone – until I married a New Zealander. He didn’t have a clue what I was referring to when I wanted to specify the dishes for an interior project we were both working on through our design practise Kiwi&Pom. We went on a mission to locate the elusive enamelware, which included a trip up to the Black Country Museum in Birmingham, and this is how the Falcon revival began.
