Persona Teacups
A family of simple teacups which initially seem
identical but soon show their own subtle personality.
The basic silhouette of 'Persona' is a contemporary
reinterpretation of the traditional Chinese tea cup.
Closer inspection reveals a series of individual texture
like patterns which are almost more tactile than visual.
The true quality of these cups are only fully
appreciated once held in the hand or up against the
light, when the translucency of the delicate porcelain
accentuates the patterns.

Sino Knives and Chopping Board
'Sino' is a compact set of kitchen knives with a unique Chinese
character designed to address most domestic cooking needs.
The set includes a large chef's knife and a smaller paring knife,
both with advanced ceramic blades which are specifically
suited for cutting and slicing without the need for regular
resharpening. In contrast, the traditional Chinese cleaver has a
durable stainless steel blade which combines the weight
required for chopping with the sharpness necessary for more
delicate cutting operations.
This careful consideration of materiality is further reflected in
the matching double sided chopping board. Machined from
laminated bamboo, it has an edge grain cutting side and an
opposing end grain chopping surface which can withstand the
impact of the cleaver without damaging its blade.
