Raruti

Rupestra is a cutting edge proposal for contemporary tableware. Its non-symmetrical forms break the rules and make people connect with their most primitive energy. The decorative images stamped on the pieces are reproductions of cave paintings.
Our production is made in Brazil, at the borders of the biggest Brazilian archaeological site, called National Park of Capivara's Mountain. This site is recognized by Unesco as a World Heritage.

Apart from its innovative appearance, it also offers the possibility of playing a guessing game with its cave paintings, “the tale on the table”. The family has grown and now we also have toiletry pieces.

Rupestra was developed during a Master of Science in Design by Cristiane Dias in 1998, at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, London Institute, in London. In 1999 the project was chosen among 20 projects to represent the Master of Science class in an annual showing at the Lethaby Gallery, in London. The project was also nominated to the College Catalog.

One of our goals with this product, beyond contributing to the exposure of Brazilian design, is also to improve the life of the region´s humble people generating jobs and incomes.

We promote a fair trade concerning the local economical development, humanitarian working conditions and nature preservation. The pieces are non-toxic, oven/microwave and dish washer resistant .
