Tapis Rouge Plate I
The Tapis Rouge Plates are named after a community spot in Port-au-Prince made of a series of concentric rings forming an open-air amphitheatre. A speckled-white platter with braided details to serve your guests with.
As part of Tè's first collection, Ruins reflects upon the aftermath of a struggling nation attempting to build its future. As new beginnings are a bittersweet event, the pieces are characterised by their all-white glaze to represent a clean slate.
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.
