I'm glad, Chrissy.. that style of drawing really works on plates (when most don't )

limited edition plates designed by a dozen contemporary artists

tanya do you know what materials that cup, saucer, spoon are made out of?
is it glass coated with fur?

Yes I believe it's glass coated with fur, cause you can see from the picture,
a glass looking material...But I'm too lazy to confirm it...

In many Asian countries food is sometimes served (and cooked) in banana leaves

ie. Kerala Cuisine

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] Kerala is known for its traditional sadhyas, a vegetarian meal served with boiled rice and a host of side-dishes. The sadhya is complemented by payasam, a sweet milk dessert native to Kerala. The sadhya is, as per custom, served on a banana leaf.

The southern Kerala dishes are often spiced with garlic, whereas in North Kerala garlic is generrally avoided in all vegetarian dishes. Traditional dishes include sambar, aviyal, kaalan, theeyal, thoran, injipully, pulisherry, appam , kappa (tapioca), puttu(steam cake) and puzhukku.

^^are those intended to be used? or just decorative?

 

[fashion.fashoff]

i think they are meant to be used if you want. i wanted to buy a set for display but the set is like 450 euros. cinq cinq did other collaborations w/bernardaud that were even better, but i can't find pics.

i made this from a broken antique wine glass & an antique porcelain teacup
