Rosenthal Variations AG Tapio Wirkkala’s Tea Set design epitomises the style of the late 60s and early 70s art forms. The contrast of white with black porcelain evokes aesthetic pleasure and a sense of alertness to the nourishing breaks of the working day. The vertical striations of the cups and pots link to geological formations and the beauty of Earth.
For elevenses, luncheon or afternoon tea these Variations pieces are versatile for family or friend’s entertainment.
