Lavis Green is a brand-new porcelain series from Turkish quality manufacturer Bonna. The series does not feel like vintage pastiche, but rather like a very contemporary reuse of a visual language associated with southern European homes, older café porcelain, perhaps a touch of middle-class nostalgia circa 1983. It is reassuring, familiar and slightly unexpected at the same time. It delivers a perfect nostalgic feel without requiring you to hunt for mismatched pieces with chipped edges and scratched surfaces — this is a complete series in exactly the right design language, made to last.
Lavis Green is fired at temperatures far exceeding what is technically possible, making it resistant to going straight from the freezer into the oven, and also highly scratch-resistant. The plates and bowls even carry a guarantee against chipping or flaking (the platters do not). For table setting, pairing with Duralex Provence glasses and the Laila cutlery series from Solex is recommended.
