Serve up home-cooked favourites on this Rien small saucer from Astier de Villatte.
Votary of pre-industrial fabrication, Astier de Villatte is celebrated for being the one and only studio in Paris to hold and harbour the traditions of artisanal ceramic production. Restoring the ancestral systems of moulding and stamping, the Rien saucer is made using handcrafting techniques from the Middle Ages which involve moulding a handmade sheet of clay, double firing the ‘biscuit’ piece and glazing the product in white enamel – a lengthy process that involves a drying time of up to one month. Characterised by subtle indentations and exposed clay, the small saucer is engraved with the brand’s signature crest - depicting an interlacing A & V - alongside the initials of one of the 40 master artisans who created it. Each handmade piece tells a beautiful story, it romances and imparts a sense of nostalgia into its owner. Arrange with other glazed bowls and plates in the collection to breathe an air of authenticity into your dining collection.
Artisanal production gives each ceramic object a unique aspect, meaning products may slightly vary.
