Magic Black: dramatic elegance with Rosenthal
Magic Black
The color of the night, a symbol of elegance and a consciously set sign of individuality or nonchalance - no color holds as much power and magic attraction as black. Its timeless charm unfolds in vases and tableware by Rosenthal, the "Rock" cutlery collection by Sambonet and the Arzberg "Tric Monochrome" collection.
Rosenthal
The tea set TAC 1 by Walter Gropius (1883 - 1969) quickly developed into a successful model of the Rosenthal Studio-Line and one of Rosenthal's cult objects. In black, its reduced formal language, the use of the simple hemisphere in the pot and cup, the play with triangle and square still reveals its Bauhaus tradition today.
Cédric Ragot's Core design is characterized by the enormous evolutionary forces of nature and the primeval feminine. Like cell nuclei that are constantly dividing, each vase size forms its own organic structure and, with echoes of prehistoric female figures, directs our gaze to the original creative.
Designed by Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid (1950-2016), the Weave vase embodies the perfect interplay of merging lines and, in black, exudes an aura of magic and extravagance.
The "Vase of Phases", which was designed by the Israeli artist Dror Banshetrit in black porcelain, has gone through several stages of creation. According to his intention - it enters an experimental phase when it is shattered. It appears rough, seductive and cool in the room, while the changes are made visible by blurred cracks and smoothed folds on the "broken" object.
Sambonet
The new cutlery collection "Rock" by Sambonet, with its contemporary, casual and appealing design, emphasizes a new table culture where a casual and casual style is cultivated. For the stainless steel version, Sambonet has impressively transformed the high-gloss PVD Rock2Black version into black.
Arzberg
Intense black - a symbol of individuality and coolness - and pure white come together in Tric Monochrome. The Arzberg collection unites the two non-colours, the maximum contrast between black and white underlining the conical shape of the line. Tric Monochrome makes a strong statement on the laid table, combining elegance and casualness without sacrificing functionality. Infinitely changeable, Tric Monochrome offers a perfect presentation surface for style enthusiasts and always reflects the spirit of the times.
