VISTA ALEGRE

“The Vista Alegre Orquestra collection is designed by David/Nicolas. The collaboration perfectly brings together the geometric designs of the david/nicolas design studio and the considered product of the Vista Alegre porcelain factory, founded in 1824. The collection of tableware recreates the complexity of harmony and musical rhythms. This milk jug has a heightened and squared construction and features intricate lined detailing.”

- porcelain Milk jug, 8.9 x 6.4 cm £31.00 RRP

- porcelain sugar pot, 8 x 10 cm £50.00 RRP

- porcelain charger plate, dia. 32.9 cm £48.00 RRP

The charger plate arrived broken so I have repaired it carefully with glue and it's holding firm. I've gone over the fault lines with gold in the style and spirit of kintsugi by repurposing what would otherwise have been for landfill. Adds another dimension to the set I feel. £18.00 listed price reflects this.

ICHENDORF

“Designed by Marco Sironi, the ‘Piuma' tableware collection features an entirely transparent design that perfectly showcases the high quality of Ichendorf Milano's Italian craftsmanship. As its name indicates (it means feather in Italian), ‘Piuma' is a light and elegant range.”

- glass teapot, dia. 11 cm x 10 cm high, £40.00 RRP

- x2 glass teacup, dia. 8 cm x 6 cm high, 27cl capacity, £13.00 RRP each

- x2 glass saucer, dia. 10 cm, £10.00 RRP each

“With its delicate shape, crystal clear transparency and attention to detail, this cup offers an unparalleled experience during tea tasting. It will add a touch of beauty and luxury to every moment of pleasure and relaxation, transforming the simple act of sipping tea into a sublime ritual”.

-Unbranded scooping glass spoon £8.00

I've photographed all of the service served on the collection's own charger plate, which just goes to show what a good size and great save it was. It's a bit eclectic this set but i think they compliment each other, as both are subtle, understated designs whose impact is all the more for making you have to look closely to truly appreciate them.

The also shown the service atop Ethnicraft's half-moon gold chevron double tray. The geometric lines echo those of the Orquestra pieces, while the Piuma range allows for the tray design to be seen at all times. None of the 3 designs are competing with one another I feel and this means they easily sit amidst many an interior scheme. If you wish to swap or include the Chevron Tray in the order please message me directly.

Courier would be ParcelForce, insured tracked and dispatched the next working day by an express service.
