: : another scandinavian favorite [sorry to be so biased here] is höganäs ceramics, of course. the cup is part of their more recent serie of salt glazed products. the black cup is a personal favoritete of my lovely friend .tina. who sent me this link. [tack tina!] there is something pure and very scandinavian about that cup.

the cute colorful dishes are called kakao , which means cocoa in swedish. funky and asymmetrical. if you visit their website, make sure to check out all their cups. cups is definitely what they do best.

dishes for life : : part three

: : so, .pete. seems to be a fan of the colorful dishes. he liked the combination of teal and brown in teema [by iittala]. so, to give him some more inspiration, I found this series called koko from arabia. very similar to teema but a little more expressive. basic forms and colors that can be combined with anything. timeless. both teema and koko has my personal vote.

: : part two continued

: : it would be impossible for me to blog about dishes without mentioning iittala.
as I have mentioned earlier, I am a fan of all of their products. actually three separate series, but all part of the same happy colorful family, here are teema dishes, kartio glasses and origo cups and bowls. teema comes in a variety of colors, combine with origo in red or blue tones to create an original set but still manage to keep them as a family.
