The Stoneware beaker, which comes in light grey and light earth, reveals the Nordic/medieval inspiration of the range and is highly versatile, suitable for use as both wine glass and cup for hot and cold drinks.
A seemingly random collection of objects, the table service comprises a number of items including a tray, a board, a carafe, plates, bowls, beakers, and cups. The project was inspired by vernacular ceramics from Korea, Japan, and China, and conceived as an exercise in refining functional household objects.
The name “Tonale” refers to Giorgio Morandi’s use of colour tonality imbueing his daily objects with a sense of individuality. The objects are produced in a variety of materials including enamelled steel, glass, earthenware, and wood. While striving for expressive purity, the range honours today’s requirements for durability and versatility." -- David Chipperfield
