Boob-inspired homewares to perk up your Friday

If you haven’t gotten around to adding some boob homewares to your space, and don’t fancy wading through the sometimes questionable search engine results, let us be your guide. 


Ever since Dublin shop April and the Bear started stocking Brookyln-based potter Isaac Nicholas back in 2017, we’ve noticed a steady increase in homewares that celebrate the female form.

From potted plant holders to bath maths, accessible art to free-flowing illustrations, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite pieces – in all shapes and sizes.

While this shape is ideal for a warming red wine, it would also make a fun addition to everyday dining as a water glass. Boob print stemless wine glass, €9, Urban Outfitters.

Pillowy soft underfoot and available in cream, brown or rainbows, this fluffy bathmat from New York’s Cold Picnic would add a fun accent to any bathroom. Cold Picnic boob bath mat, £60, Bando.

Olympia, 2018/19. Acrylic on mover's blanket, Lee Welch Berlin opticians dublin

Echoes of art references through the ages can be seen at Lee Welch’s The other side of the wind exhibition at Berlin Opticians Gallery, but for theme’s sake, we’re particularly drawn to this piece. “Olympia, 2018/19.” (acrylic on mover’s blanket, 137 x 102 cm) by Lee Welch Berlin, POA, Berlin Opticians Dublin.
