About The Stroke Leturgerð Kaffibolli

Innsláttartáknið er smíðað úr fínu hvítu postulíni og hannað samkvæmt gyllta hlutfallinu og sýnir leturgrafískt tákn sem er mikilvægt fyrir himneskan með hverjum sopa sem þú tekur. Þessi krús er hluti af röð skrautlegra og hagnýtra hluta sem fela í sér mjög listræna vinnu með fíngerðum en þó áberandi smáatriðum og keim af gerð. Sett í Centro leturgerð Parachute Typefoundry's, þessi innsláttarvilla veitir djúpan sálaranda með fjölbreyttri blöndu af gerð, iðnaðarhönnun og löngum tilraunum. Virðing fyrir alhliða þörf mannkyns fyrir tengsl, einingu og frið.

Unique Properties
This is an extra fine porcelain product designed under the golden ratio principle to provide aesthetics and functionality that adhere to strict mathematical laws as well as a hands-on balanced experience.
From the proportions of nautilus shells through tree leaves, pine cone seeds or sunflower spirals to the work of trailblazing artists like Le Corbusier and Salvador Dali, the golden ratio conquered the world of aesthetics as a proportion by default pleasing to the eye.
This mug is a typographic object of desire and one that introduces its owner to a symbol of celestial importance across the passage of time, implementing a unique stroke that terminates with a sharp slit into the porcelain.
