When The Dew is turned upside down, air pressure moves the liquid from the upper part to the lower part. The tea leaves stay in the upper part, so the lower part becomes the serving pot. The shape is inspired by the formation of a dewdrop, which grows slowly as moisture gathers, much like the gradual brewing of tea.

The singular shape is preserved, absent of unnecessary distractions or additions. The result is an efficient, clean, two-tone form that’s as eye-catching as it is ergonomic.

They evidence an almost direct transition from digital modeling, to prototype, to product, while showcasing the adaptability of such an organic material as ceramics into something geometric and modern.
