Maison-matisse Carré Cup
CARRÉ CUP
CARRÉ CUP
Designed By Studio Maison Matisse
During a lunch, a dinner or simply a coffee with friends, the table and the objects on it are the center of attention, like full members of our discussions.
The pieces of tableware therefore have a considerable importance in the general atmosphere, becoming actors of our scenographies.
With its singular shape and the finishes that are brought to it, the Carré cup is a piece of choice.
Whether it is a water glass, a cocktail glass or a coffee cup, it can take on any function you wish, according to your desires, while bringing a decorative and colorful touch to your table.
The La Musique collection offers a range of tableware objets, in which the Carré cup and its 6 colors are part. Inspired by Henri Matisse's painting La Musique (1939), the Carré cup offers you the possibility to create an assortment to your image.
Combined with our bottles or our dessert plates, it allows the creation of a complete service with a unique and joyful look.

DETAIL
ARTS AND MATERIALS
The production of the Carré cup is carried out exclusively in Italy in a traditional factory. After creating a mold from our design, the piece of earthenware is poured and then removed from the mold by hand. The squared pattern is created in this mold as a guide for the craftsman.
The piece is then painted, and it is by hand, piece by piece, that the craftsman draws the square pattern with a metal point. After a first firing, a matte varnish is added on the outside of the cup giving it this raw aspect and reinforcing the matte and shiny contrast of each cup. Each color has been developed exclusively for our La Musique collection.
INSPIRATION
Designed by the Maison Matisse studio, the Carré cup has a family resemblance with the other ceramics in the La Musique collection designed by Marta Bakowski.
Always inspired by the eponymous work of Henri Matisse, painted in 1939, it is inspired by the lines painted by the artist on the tapestry in the painting. As for the colors, they are directly inspired by the palette and are perfectly coordinated with our dessert plates.
STUDIO
MAISON MATISSE STUDIO
Maison Matisse launched its design studio in 2021, complementing regular invitations to established and emerging designers.
The Studio, an in-house playground, is a place for research and development that emphasizes spontaneity and curiosity in the creative process. Young designers are encouraged to participate and propose new interpretations of Henri Matisse's work.
Using motifs or works chosen in close collaboration with the painter's family, the Studio creates objects that will enrich our permanent collections.
The Maison Matisse Studio is a wonderful invitation to try new creative experiences and to encourage the quality of our partners' work, with the only requirements being independence, audacity, creativity and experimentation.
The Studio Maison Matisse is therefore the embodiment of Maison Matisse's first mission: to transmit and share Henri Matisse's message of optimism, sharing and generosity with young creators, so that they can spread it throughout the world through our creations.
