Coffee Set Aberta COR

Most people think very little about the number of everyday actions. The fact that we pick up a mug or cup many, many times a day, warm ourselves by it, smell its contents, is one of these automated everyday actions that take place virtually incidentally.

But it is precisely these actions that represent moments of real life. They enrich our everyday life. Objects such as mugs and cups become faithful companions through our lives. They wake us up in the morning with a cup of coffee, they ensure that we are sufficiently hydrated during the day with plenty of herbal tea, they assist us during a cold with a hot ginger infusion, they help us digest a hearty meal with an espresso before the evening really gets going, they support us during breastfeeding with fennel tea and they ensure a peaceful night's sleep with a good evening tea.

That is life. Life with drinking vessels.

ABERTA COR is made in northern Portugal, in a family-run business that is one of the manufacturers we have been working with for many years. It is nestled in the gentle hills of Porto's hinterland. The family looks back on a long tradition of ceramics: the knowledge of working with clay has been passed down through generations and continually refined. Our KLASSIK collection is made there as well.
The pieces in the ABERTA COR collection are pressed by hand. Once dried, they are cleaned and finished, then glazed in two colours and fired.
