The reversible Lotus Small plate interprets the root of the lotus flower through a wider, more horizontal form, designed to accommodate more generous preparations. Its irregular cavities evoke the natural cross-section of the Japanese root, transforming the surface into an organic, textural landscape.
Lotus Small is reversible:
• When turned upside down, it becomes a sculptural deep plate where sauces, broths, and emulsions can flow between the elevations, creating depth and movement.
• Used as a raised stand or serving plate, it features five wider cavities, designed to hold a greater quantity of food — perfect for structured preparations, raw dishes, contemporary desserts, or compositions with a strong textural presence.
Its broader, more welcoming silhouette enhances the dialogue between solids and voids, leaving space for more generous interpretations.
Not just a plate, but a form that invites creativity and transforms presentation into a poetic gesture. More than something to describe, it is an object to imagine in the hands of a chef.
