KYO Cups & Pitcher
Snorre Læssøe Stephensen, 1962
Designed in 1962 by one of the forefathers of Danish ceramic tradition, handmade Cups and Pitcher are a delicate and timeless design. The Porcelain pieces are made in different spray glazed colours and with a base in raw stoneware, the Pitcher's handle is made in OAK veneer. The pitcher works perfect as a classical pitcher but can also be used as a vase for smaller flower bouquets.

The KYO series is designed by Snorre Læssøe Stephensen, one of the forefathers of the Danish ceramic tradition.
“Even though KYO was drawn decades ago, it corresponds perfectly with our take on form, function and craft. The shapes are clean and without superfluous elements. Still, there is a complexity to be found in the interaction between stone, porcelain and wood,” says partner and head of design Magnus Sangild.
