To brew up in style, try a designer model like those by Brooklyn artist Jason Miller who Wallpaper magazine named Breakthrough Artist of the Year in 2007. His Seconds teapots spring from his 2004 exhibit “Okay as Is,” and their purposely “misplaced” and unfinished images of Bluejays and Orioles suggest we don’t have to follow all the rules. Retails for $88 at Anthropologie stores, www.anthropologie.com or www.areaware.com.
