About Villages Sada nádobek na koření

Villages je sada odnímatelných keramických nádobek na koření navržená pro stolování. Nádobky lze uspořádat v různých kombinacích, takže si uživatelé sami určují jejich funkci při servírování. Postavené společně na talíři vytvářejí nádobky malou vesnickou scénu, která promění stolování v krajinu. Sada je vyrobena v Jingdezhenu z vysokoteplotního porcelánu, který je bezpečný, netoxický a vhodný pro použití v mikrovlnné troubě. Záměrem je vnést do každodenního stolování teplo a potěšení.
