Fantastic formations
A triumph of form and function, inspired by nature and captured in perfect porcelain. Uniquely inspired by the stately beauty of the limestone cliffs along France's famous Alabaster Coast, this striking porcelain collection appeals to the bold soul.
Featuring 20 impressive items, including a selection of plates, bowls and serving dishes, Calcaire is not only a feast for the eyes, but also great for the practical kitchen. All items are completely oven-, magnetron- and dishwasher-safe.
Porcelain
Porcelain is a mixture of feldspar, kaolin and quartz. These minerals are mixed and pulverized in a certain proportion. Then this mixture is mixed with water and formed into a product using a mold. This raw product (called cookie) is usually first baked at about 1100℃. Then the product is glazed and fired again at a very high temperature somewhere between 1250 and 1380℃. Porcelain is very strong and suitable for intensive use.
