| Set of 3 | 1988 Afra and Tobia Scarpa Engraved Sterling Silver Tea Service
$14,200.00
Sold by Abask
From the archive and never to be reproduced, this 1988 three-piece tea service by San Lorenzo captures a singular moment in Italian design. Comprising a teapot, milk jug and sugar bowl, it is defined by an upright, architectural silhouette inspired by traditional Oriental forms, with an engraved, bark-like surface and wooden accents that temper silver’s heat-conducting properties to ensure a secure, burn-free grip. Developed through Ciro Cacchione’s collaboration with Afra and Tobia Scarpa, the husband-and-wife duo renowned for their rigorous material sensibility, the service reflects San Lorenzo’s conviction that function is the genesis of form.
