About Focus Theeservies
Focus is een draagbaar keramisch theeservies voor het zetten en drinken van thee. Het geheel bestaat uit twee delen, een enkele pot en een enkele kop, die samen één compacte vorm vormen die eenvoudig mee te dragen is. Het uiterlijk is geïnspireerd op een cameralens, met een glanzende verhoogde structuur in het midden van het boven- en onderdeel. Focus is gemaakt van traditionele Chinese porseleinklei met een glanzend glazuur en een matte buitenlaag, gevormd door keramisch bakken. Een schroefdraad en een dubbele wand verminderen het risico op verbranding, terwijl de schenktuit zorgt voor een soepele waterstroom.

We hope to design a tea set that overturns the traditional tea set and has modern flavor to bringing more possibilities for people's tea life.

The tea set integrates the elements of mechanical industry and unique modern design, and integrates aesthetics and practicability. Even in a busy city life, you will feel very relaxed when you smell the tea aroma.
