For the emergence of the carafe AKA / VEOLIA the inspiration comes from a mere cap decanter/stem, which is based on the simple facade of the Roman aqueduct (from the Latin aqua ductus, literally tap water). The morphology of the decanter is inspired by the Greek amphora (amphora or “carrier”), a medieval vessel on the water.
The men’s thin crystal decanter is designed so that it fits naturally into the hand. This makes it easily graspable. It is contemporarily made in the functional morphology design referring to the amphora and the aqueduct. The cork stopper together with the stainless steel provides an elegant tight seal to avoid any spillage.
The lighted rim decanters are designed for restaurants to better handle the glassware in a busy heavy-use environment, whereas the grinded and polished decanters are designed for home, where they will be a good fit at any meal or special occasion.
