Adonde Modular Ceramic Dinnerware Collection

4-15-adonde-table-1.jpgWe've previously posted a profile of the Williamsburg store Mc & Co. One of our favorite products from the store was the Adonde modular ceramics displayed in the window. A product of France, this stunningly simple tableware is versatile and engaging. While we urge New Yorkers to support the independent Mc & Co, The Adonde collection is now available from Design Within Reach as part of their new offerings for their Tools For Living initiative...

The Adonde Collection features dining and serving vessels in muted, neutral colors (white, off-white and brown) and wooden serving and dining utensils. Totally modular, plates perform dual functions as lids and multiple pieces can be stacked for easy storage and display.

At DWR, prices range from $15 for a single ceramic mug to $70 for a ceramic serving bowl. Dishwasher, oven and microwave safe. If you love the modular functionality of these pieces (but not the price), check out CB2's modern dinnerware.

Try to find it someplace else. DWR will charge you an arm and a leg and an ear. Their prices are absurd. Plus their shipping rates are a joke when so many online sites ship for free over 50 or 100.

"But can't figure out why it needs to be this expensive.."

Um - Because it's made France by people who are paid a living wage rather than in a coal-burning Chinese sweatshop that dumps pollution into the local rivers?

So, could these be used to create a microwave safe (although fragile) bento box?

I support the need for a living wage by the people who actually make these beautiful products. It's the excessive profit of business owners, management, and retailers like DWR that is way out of line.

The DWR haters need to grow up. Thats a very different company with strong green ethics, responsible wages for all, and most importantly artist's support. Confusing it with knock-off online sites and exploitive chains like Crate and Barrel and Potterybarn is seriously misguided. The buyers at DWR buy high-end furniture in bulk just you can have the chance at buying a piece made of real wood and real metal and real ceramics at believe it or not...real prices!
