The combination and reinterpretation of South American and European lifestyles is one of Isabella Pikart’s themes. Her sources of inspiration include Brazilian Neoconcretismo, characterized by a “longing for form”. The new “L’Histoire de Mimi Cri” ring collection of Pikart’s “vaporetta berlin” design label has been crafted entirely from porcelain. The three models, “Pool Blue” (azure blue), “Bicho” (black blue) and “Ouro Branco” (snow-white and partially gold-plated) are each limited to 32 pieces and numbered by hand. Isabella Pikart founded her “vaporetta berlin” label in 2001.
