CARRÉ CENTERPIECE - FRUIT BASKETS
Designed by Studio Maison Matisse
Inspired by the painting La Musique by Henri Matisse in 1939, the Carré centerpiece was designed in the Maison Matisse design studio, and features both the color palette of the painting and one of its key symbols: the grid.
Completing the La Musique collection, this earthenware centerpiece is entirely made in Italy, in a workshop with a unique know-how that bears witness to Italian excellence.
Available in three color combinations: blue and yellow, ochre and pink, black and green, this piece is designed for multiple uses, depending on your needs.

INSPIRATION
Marrying the curved lines representative of the painter's work with the grid pattern so contrasting in the painting, the Carré centerpiece is a strong and subtle piece at the same time. The bold colors chosen to dress it are directly inspired by the color palette of the painting and finish off the character of the Carré centerpiece.
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.
ARTS AND MATERIALS
QUALITY
The Carré centerpiece is made entirely by hand in Italy, in a traditional factory with a long history of expertise.
To design it, a mold is first created and then the ceramic is delicately poured, fired and removed by hand. In the mold, a grid is engraved which will serve as a guide to the craftsman.
The piece will then be painted and it is by hand that the craftsman will redraw the grid piece by piece with a specific tool using the spolvero technique.
Finishing is done in several steps and firings to achieve a play of matter between a matte exterior and a shiny interior
