Alessi - Toyo Ito - Plate (16) - Dinner Plates & Bowls...

Alessi ‘’KU’’ set of 8 dinner plates and 8 (Soup) Bowls made out of white porcelain. The set was originally designed in 2006 by Japanese Master Toyo Ito. Given the fluid shapes of the delicate "KU" porcelain service, new lifestyles and living styles are reflected in the design of the “KU” service. Given the size of the large Soup bowls they can be used as both a Soup bowl and a regular bowl. Perfect for both domestic and professional use, ''KU'' feature a purely classical design with a contemporary twist as is also reflected in the architectural projects of Toyo Ito. The white porcelain gives great character to each individual plate or bowl, as well as ensuring extreme strength and durability Dimensions: Dining plate: ø cm 27 / ø10¾” Soup bowl: ø cm 23 - cl 32 / ø 9” - 11¼ oz Dishwasher safe This ‘’KU’’ service is in a new and unused condition.
