The Ichendorf Piuma saucer by Marco Sironi is a subtle yet essential complement to the Ichendorf Piuma coffee and tea cups. Created for Ichendorf Milano, it embodies the harmony between lightness, proportion, and precision that defines the entire Piuma collection. Each piece, available in a transparent finish, celebrates the refined simplicity of Italian design: pure, functional, and beautifully understated. This saucer turns a simple daily ritual into an elegant composition, where every detail speaks of balance and thoughtful craftsmanship.
Handmade artistry in borosilicate glass
Each saucer is handmade and lampworked from borosilicate glass, a material chosen for its strength, clarity, and extraordinary lightness. Artisans shape it by hand, giving life to a perfectly balanced disk that feels both delicate and resilient. Its transparent surface reflects the surrounding light, while the gentle curve of its rim ensures the ideal fit for the Piuma cups. Dishwasher safe at low temperatures (40 °C / 104 °F recommended), the saucer retains its brilliance over time, allowing you to enjoy it daily without compromise. It is the perfect expression of Ichendorf craftsmanship: precise, modern, and made to last.
The refined balance of function and form
Minimal yet expressive, the Piuma saucer reveals how elegance can be found in the simplest geometry. Its circular shape offers visual lightness, and the thin profile allows it to blend effortlessly with any table setting. Designed to accompany espresso cups or tea mugs, it adds an airy, transparent layer to the composition, enhancing both the drink and the atmosphere. The saucer’s pure surface becomes a canvas for light, shadows, and reflections, capturing Ichendorf’s belief that everyday objects can be as poetic as they are practical.
Completing the Piuma collection
This glass dish belongs to the Ichendorf Piuma collection, an emblem of contemporary Italian tableware defined by precision and fluidity. Together with the Piuma cups and Ichendorf teapots, it forms a coordinated set that elevates the ritual of serving tea or coffee. The design also harmonizes with the Ichendorf drinkware and the Ichendorf bottles, uniting objects that share the same attention to proportion and material purity. Whether used as a small dessert plate, a minimalist saucer, or a decorative accent, it expresses a coherent aesthetic vision: one of transparency, restraint, and beauty in motion.
Everyday elegance for contemporary living
Owning the Ichendorf Piuma saucer means choosing authenticity over excess. It’s made for those who value the quiet sophistication of handcrafted design, where clarity, light, and proportion create emotion. Its neutral tone complements modern interiors, blending seamlessly with glass, porcelain, or stoneware. As with all Marco Sironi's for Ichendorf pieces, the saucer embodies a lifestyle rooted in quality and calm refinement. Lightweight yet durable, artistic yet functional, it turns every moment of pause into a small act of design appreciation: an encounter between Italian creativity and timeless simplicity.
