This tableware collection is a contemporary interpretation that merges the elegance of the past with the habits of modern users. At the heart of the design lies one of the symbols of Turkish culture—the “slim-waisted tea glass.” This iconic silhouette inspires the plate’s form, which fluidly rises from the center towards the edges, offering a blend of nostalgic warmth and modern refinement.

The design approaches aesthetics and functionality as an inseparable whole. The plate’s gently sloping edge not only enhances the presentation but also ensures a comfortable dining experience. Carefully considered proportions and seamless surface transitions balance ergonomic comfort with visual harmony for everyday use.

This contemporary form language, rooted in tradition, creates a quiet yet powerful link between the past and the present. Every detail in this collection aims not only to serve a practical purpose at the table but also to add meaning and emotion to each meal.
