Inspiration
The Lustre tableware family features a reinterpretation of Bethan’s complex hand-drawn Dhow pattern originally inspired by the billowing sails of Oman’s distinctive sailing boats, together with her Stripe pattern inspired by 13th century Persian lustreware bowls.
Craft
Created in Stoke-on-Trent, the home of British ceramics, from fine bone china and 24-carat gold - the allure and radiance of which cannot be replicated with any other material.
Detail
Each piece takes twelve days to make and is only possible by hand - the pattern is meticulously assembled by combining 24-carat gold and black silkscreen decals, then is further finished with 24-carat gold gilding.
Lustre, conceived by award-winning designer Bethan Gray uses a fine bone china body paired with 24-carat gold and black decals, and finished with hand gilded details. The family features a reinterpretation of Bethan’s hand-drawn Dhow pattern originally inspired by the billowing sails of Oman’s distinctive sailing boats.
Possible only by hand, the pattern is meticulously applied in three separate pieces in a pattern that is complex with its curvatures. The decals of 24-carat gold and black are fired, hand finished with 24-carat gold and finally fired for a second time.
