he 2013 “Tales of Porcelain” collection was born through the collaboration of Maison Christian Lacroix and Vista Alegre, both renowned for their elegance, style, and excellent quality. This impeccable collection is designed around four main themes; Sol y Sombra, bringing you a watercolor striped design, Forum, a print of 19th century Arles monuments, Picassiette, a trompe-l’oeil mosaic of Gaudi-style broken plates, and Butterfly Parade, a flight of real and imaginary butterflies.
The collection uses humor, fantasy, and technical feats to reflect what Lacroix is truly about; everything that has made the fashion house unique since it first emerged on the scene.
The “Tales of Porcelain” gives everyone the opportunity to accessorize their table however they please. From the traditional to the contemporary, it stays true to the brand’s signature “mix and match” style.
As if that wasn’t enough! To top it off, each piece is edged in gold and platinum intertwined, for the ultimate refinement and in honor of the “aficionados.”
