Can an iconic tradition be elevated through functionality?

This accessory set for the table aims at redefining the Mediterranean tradition of wine tasting and infusion inspired by the Apulian ceramics craft from whose archeological designation the project takes part of its name. The set comprehends: a pitcher, cups, a telescopic infuser and its housing. The  material, clay, ensures the cool wine stays at a stable temperature, while the sleek spout of the pitcher evolves the typical one of Apulian ceramics ensuring a fine pour that maximizes oxygenation. When the infusion is complete the user removes the infuser and places it into its housing to taste the fruit separately. The project turns a historic rural archetype into a smoother experience that honors regional identity while embracing modern utility.
