Adelaide Tea Cup
The Adelaide tea cup by Driade brings Xie Dong’s sculptural ceramic approach to a small handleless vessel.
Made in white bone china, it has a gently irregular profile and a rounded lower body beneath an open rim. Its compact proportions offer a quieter counterpart to the more strongly folded plates and vases in the Adelaide collection. Model code: DA543F7007002.
