A Plate for the Breakfast Table<\/p>\n
A plate created with breakfast in mind.
\nWith room for bread, salad and eggs, it is equally useful for a complete meal on one plate.
\nAs food is added, the plate takes on a new expression, bringing a little more of the story to the everyday table.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n BORKA On the cup, copperplate transfers capture the lively dancing geese while preserving the charm of the original drawings. Blue flower motifs and layered transfers add depth to the colours and sheen. The glass is a distinctive piece in this collection. Geese and flowers, drawn with John Burningham's characteristic energy, dance lightly across its surface. The illustrations are so rich that it can seem a shame to cover them. Yet adding food or a drink changes each piece's expression, bringing the picture-book world to the table. A Plate for the Breakfast Table<\/p>\n A plate created with breakfast in mind.

\n<\/strong>John Burningham's debut book, BORKA, tells of a goose born without feathers who finds a place where she can be herself. POTPURRI brings the warmth of that world into tableware for everyday life.
\nOur starting point was to capture a scene on ceramic as though it had been lifted from a picture-book page. We considered how to tell the story on three-dimensional objects, choosing the best technique for each item and finishing every piece with care.<\/p>\n
\nThe plates depict memorable scenes of geese running across the grass and Borka watching her companions leave from the waterside. Carefully separated areas of glaze capture the gentle atmosphere of meadow and water in ceramic form.<\/p>\n
\nThe design comes together when a drink is poured, celebrating the possibilities of transparent glass.<\/p>\n
\nAs though today's table were a page from a picture book.
\nThat is the feeling we hoped to bring to this collection.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
