designer's own words:

The group of pieces "suau" that means in catalan "soft" are made by hand in stoneware clay with porcelain chamotte (small particles into the paste) that gives more strengt to the material and produces the texture of the outside face. They have an organic shape, with high and strong foots that reduces to a thin borders, giving the sensation that grow from the table. The outside colour is the original white stoneware with a thin protection that contrast with the gloss of the glazes made with oxids of the inside, for enhance the feeling of the freshness from the food, like fruits or salads. The dishes combine with another small pieces for drink coffee or liquor, with the shape of a half sphere like a half of a white egg adapting to the inside curvature of the hand.
