Seremoni Plater I

'Seremoni' is a Haitian-Creole word meaning 'ceremony', in reference to the platter's elegant shape befitting of a ritual ceremony. 

As part of Tè's third collection, Revolution is about overthrowing outdated and oppressive ideals while re-establishing personal identity and the freedom of being. Characterized by monochromatic, earth-toned colours, and deep carvings with a touch of elegance, Tè wishes to convey the struggle of separating oneself from an unwanted past through French and Haitian influences. 

ABOUT TÈ

Tè is taken from Haitian-Creole origins meaning ‘soil’. An alter ego to Margaret Yap’s chaotic and fluorescent prism, it is filled with ruminations of ancient ruins and hazy remnants of a colonial reign, as she uncovers a hidden sanctuary underneath it all. Exploring stoneware in a raw and rustic manner coupled with fleeting romantic ideologies, Tè evokes feelings of periodic nostalgia.   

This piece is food-grade, microwave and dishwasher safe, but please keep it away from direct fire.
