Rich, dimensional patterns and unexpected color pairings are signatures to the Kelly Wearstler design vernacular. Wearstler engages futuristic 3D vector grids and ancient glassware motifs within the Zuma family. For the porcelain dinnerware, Wearstler stripped down a digital graphic pattern to convey a hand painted feel, creating the perfect balance between tech and hand-craft. The patterns vary throughout the range and are intended to be mixed and matched across colors and shapes - in classic Wearstler fashion.
The Zuma range was developed in collaboration with belgian brand Serax. Each pattern is hand-stamped onto the pieces for a hand-painted look and feel, after which the glaze is applied.

Wearstler believes that honoring history, location and architecture is imperative to pushing the boundaries and challenging the rules.
