L'Objet's Aegean collection is a Greco-Roman nod to the ancient world. Taking its name from the Greek word "aiges", meaning "waves", the porcelain tableware pieces in the collection feature undulating motifs or reflect the ornate detailing associated with that period – here, an elaborately decorative gold handle punctuates a simple white 110ml espresso cup while a raised sculpted pattern adorns the saucer and is also finished in 24kt gold. The result is an elegant series that harkens to the past, but designed for contemporary tables.
