The color scheme deftly takes up the aesthetics of Bitossi’s Italian Rimini Blu series and translates it into the precise production quality of post-war West German ceramics.

Serial single piece:
This is not fully automatic, soulless mass production.
At Carstens Tönnieshof, the term was used to differentiate from cheap, purely industrial mass goods and to emphasize the handcrafted quality of the pieces.

High-quality artisanal work with a high share of handcraft:
Each piece has passed through the hands of experienced ceramicists and painters.
Because the glaze is applied entirely by hand, every vase is unique in its color gradient.
