Shades of Blue Collection

In Africa, blue is first and foremost the blue of indigo: a precious dye, long a sign of prestige, obtained by dipping the fabric several times into the vat. This collection brings together all our pieces that bear its mark, from midnight blue to lavender blue.

A blue and white table

Blue pairs beautifully with light wood, linen, and woven baskets; it brings a sense of calm to a summer table and elegance to a winter table. Plates, salad bowls, cups, mugs, bowls, and breakfast sets can easily be mixed and matched. Each piece is decorated to order in our workshop in Alfortville: the pattern is prepared, applied, and glazed by hand before firing. Colors, first name, date, or short message: it can be personalized upon request, and a broken piece can be replaced individually.
