Do they mean the rape from "rapeseed oil"? Either way, it doesn't make a good impression. Found in Shanghai.
Arabia are perhaps the best known designer of tableware in Finland, and you really have to pay through the nose to get Arabia style.
So there I was in Anttila looking for some hinges when I came across some stylish white cups and tea pots. I was drawn to the severe clean lines and simplicity of the desgin.
Every single piece had some sort of flaw. It looked like small bits of green grass baked into the glaze. There was no rhyme or reason regarding the occurance of these delicate markings. I imagined a monk burning grass on a bronze platter and whill it was aflame blowing the ash and bits of grass over the unglazed plates and cups before they were fired in the oven. Each item was unique and idividual.
There was no label on the base of any of the items. I thoroughly liked the idea that they were not branded. Neither were they priced. There was a swarm of women picking up beautiful soup tureens, and enormous serving plates
And the price? Well let me just say everything was sold by kilo weight.

One photograph, fragmented with geometric precision, some parts discarded, some parts casually stripped of all sense of orientation - the remaining survivors try to huddle close (strength gained by foisting responsibility onto the others), but something is not right - barriers! The lines which bring to the fore the rectilinearity and symmetry that define the arrangement as a singular whole are the very same lines that lock the four partitions into four separate entities.
This beautiful Christmas-themed tableware is presently displayed at the Williams Sonoma outlet here in Ann Arbor's Briarwood Mall.
