Discus

2004

Product design for iconic Italian crystal brand Arnolfo di Cambio.

Discus is a modern reinterpretation of the traditional caviar dish. The two-part design consists of a base and a cover in pressed crystal with an angled edge profile that prevents the cover from slipping off the ice-filled base. The angled edge also ensures that the cover is always perfectly centered on the base. The caviar is presented in the cavity of the cover, where the crystal is as thin as possible to keep the caviar optimally cooled. Two cutout details in the base ensure that the cover can be easily lifted.
