Lifestyle — the table, in metal and stone
Meteorite
Steel, spun and doubled.
Stainless steel raised on the lathe and finished two ways in the same range — mirror-polished so the room lands in it, or blackened until it holds no reflection at all. The double-layer pieces are two shells with air between them, so a cold drink stays cold and the outside stays dry. Bowls, tumblers, goblets, trays and stirrers.
Iteru
Stoneware, kiln-glazed.
The same profiles as the metal, thrown and fired instead of spun. Black glaze, matte where the metal is bright — plates, bowls, tumblers and the Temptation vases, which run taller than anything else on the table.
Cu
Copper, and the mark it keeps.
Copper takes the seal more deeply than any other metal in the range, and it does not stay the colour it arrives in — handled, it darkens where the hand goes and holds the difference. Cups, bowls, tumblers, the confectionery display and the canopic vase.
Brass
Three objects, and a reason for each.
The smallest house, and the most particular. The Maat chocolate hammer, an incense holder, and the Nabta Playa napkin rings — named for the stone circle in the Western Desert that kept the calendar before anyone wrote one down.
Bed Sheets
Cotton, for the other half of the house.
Where the range leaves the table. Flat and fitted sheets, duvet covers and pillow cases in king and super king, plain or finished with a grey piping that runs the length of the hem. Sold as single pieces or as the full set, with towels in three sizes.
