Cork is a natural material, it can withstand high temperatures making it an ideal tableware companion. But, given its natural properties, it should also be treated with care: do not submerge it in water or put it in the dishwasher. Gently wipe clean with a damp cloth. Each piece is made from 100% organic cork bark leftovers and slightly burnt before pressing to get this particular color and finish. Each plate is varnished with a thin layer for protection to ensure durability.

Rebirth is a limited edition to express our gratitude to Mother Earth. We have selected a serie of existing items from our Mother collection, all made out of burnt cork bark and have placed them outside on the first day of the Belgian lockdown de dato 16.03.2020, to let the pieces age from outdoor conditions until 16.12.2020.

By doing this , we want to emphasize the importance of looking at the simple wonders of life, to activate our awareness on the energetic potential of the presence ”being”.

9 months of aging, symbolizing the process for giving birth to new life.
