The classy stone look of the décor Shi complements TAOs gentle lines in a natural way. Its handle appears to flow from the cup and gently envelopes the fingers. Enjoy your espresso in a TAO espresso cup. It can be paired with the matching 13 cm TAO saucer. TAO mirrors forms found in nature, sensual contours and clear lines. The result is a novel, harmonious combination of surfaces and elevations – as smooth as pebbles polished by water. The porcelain rests in the hands of its user in a sensual way, gentle and pleasant with every touch. Whether for cooking light, for exotic and Mediterranean dishes or a relaxed tea time – select ingredients and loving preparation merge with TAO into a holistic experience. TAO was awarded four international design awards. Kahla porcelain is dishwasher safe and microwave safe. We hope you enjoy our products made in Germany using environmentally and socially sustainable production practices.
