Chanoyu by Luzerne
Home-grown tableware manufacturer Luzerne has been supplying to hotels, but it is now launching a retail range. Although best known for its show plates, Luzerne's new collection includes the Chanoyu range. This is the brand's first complete tea set collection specially created as an ode to the fine tradition of tea appreciation. The smooth and wide curves that wrap around the tea pots are designed to mirror the zen art of tea making, allowing tea connoisseurs to slowly savour exquisite perfection in every brew.
