Coquilles
Porcelains for
VILLARI
2019
Coquilles are a collection of contemporary porcelains conceived as objects of poetic reaction.
Coquilles adorned with seashells have sculptural qualities and also extraordinary poetic potential. The whole collection excels in her pure and uncluttered nature with continually varied shapes and colours.

Anyone who walks on a beach is captivated by the charm of shells. Shells are part of that vast panoply of spokespeople who speak the language of nature. According to Le Corbusier, witnesses qualified as objects that evoke a poetic reaction are those whose shape, size, substance, colour and durability are worthy of a place in our homes.
The poetic and value of the objects that each of us uses profoundly influences the quality of our life. So it’s essential to weave a deep connection with nature in interior architecture.
Work with porcelain is notoriously challenging. Porcelain is a thirsty clay that absorbs water quickly, making the material more likely to collapse, as evidenced by the pronounced withdrawal of the very first prototype.
Therefore, Coquilles are veritable achievements on a technical level. And they demonstrate once again the awesomeness of Villari porcelain.
