SPRING DUSK TEA SET
In a kitchen overlooking the Saronic Gulf, pale light gathers on stone and coastline. The Spring Dusk Tea Set’s light cerulean dint and wave-battered sandy base mirror the late day’s vista.
One of 25 of Anna Karountzou’s commissioned pieces for Mona Hotel, this pot and matching handleless cups are deftly handcrafted using traditional methods and reflect the artist’s constant preoccupation with nature and the passage of time.
Amongst linen tablecloths and brisk island terrace winds, the Spring Dusk set balances warm and cool tones in a miniature of settling evening.
A Mona commission in collaboration with the artist.
This is a limited collection of 25 unique handmade ceramic tea pots, diverse in shapes and textures, each with 2 or 4 matching cups. The materials and glazes’ earthy tones correspond with Mona’s interior elements.
Karountzou finds inspiration in nature, obsessed with the marks of time evidently present in the essence of corrosion her ceramics exude. All pots have been fired at a high temperature to ensure durability.
Formed by traditional techniques such as the coiling method, her works are each made by hand and constitute one-of-a-kind pieces.
Karountzou’s most recent experimentation with clay results in a sculptural breed between gothic and industrial, where clay takes on a metallic glaze.
Lorem ipsum, or lipsum as it is sometimes known, is dummy text used in laying out print, graphic or web designs. The passage is attributed to an unknown typesetter in the 15th century who is thought to have scrambled parts of Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum for use in a type specimen book.

This handmade glazed ceramic piece may be able to withstand dishwasher temperatures, but we recommend handwashing with warm water and non-corrosive soaps to ensure longevity and avoid chipping.
