CARLO · TESSUTO
WOVEN FROM CONTRASTS
An interplay of contrasts woven into a harmonious overall picture: CARLO TESSUTO is an elegant tableware series that combines maritime associations with an urban attitude to life. TESSUTO is a modern interpretation of the interconnectedness of apparent opposites: light and dark, movement and calm, sea and city. Like fascinating coastal cities from Hamburg to Marseilles, TESSUTO also combines the timelessness of the sea with cosmopolitan vibrancy.
The TESSUTO design stems from the pen of French designer Sylvie Langet. On the CARLO form created by Italian designer Carlo Dal Bianco, the bright colours of the Côte d’Azur interweave with the joiede vivre of the Italian dolce vita to create elegant porcelain tableware.
HARMONIOUS INTERPLAY OF COLOURS
A rich dark blue, a vivid red/orange and a soft light blue come together to create fascinating compositions. At the same time, each colour within the design comprises fine lines in sometimes sharply contrasting hues. In turn, these come together to present a balanced colour scheme to the beholder.
Thanks to the symmetry of the patterns and the familiar visual motif of a woven texture, the abstract decor assumes a poised tranquillity and a modern-day elegance. 24-carat gold edges, which are applied by hand, underscore the exclusivity and timelessness of the design.
"I AM FASCINATED BY CONTRASTS. TESSUTO IS AN EXCITING INTERPLAY BETWEEN MASCULINE STRUCTURES AND FINE FEMININE ELEGANCE. THE AMBIVALENCE OF THE COLOURS LEND THE DECOR A POSITIVE SENSE OF DRAMA THAT UNITES IN AN OVERALL IMPRESSION OF BALANCED SYMMETRY."
