the chai collection by nikita bhate

‘the chai collection’ by nikita bhate

conceived by further developing the original idea of dexterity and consciously connecting the body and mind – the chai tea set by indian designer nikita bhate takes influence from the road side tea culture in india; simple, stripped down and austere. made using pure white porcelain, it consists of pots for tea, sugar, milk and the tea cups. the structured metal tray together with the wooden seat conveys the concept of easy transportation and service – aiming at imparting values to objects which are unrecognized, being just a part of our routine.
