Launching Today: The Platter Project from Permanent Collection
We recently heard from Fanny Singer, the founder of Permanent Collection (one of our favorite cult houseware lines), about her new Platter Project, a collection of limited edition platters she commissioned from a small group of artists and artisans. “The project celebrates the art of cooking, entertaining, and gathering around the table with a series of small-edition handmade platters designed for family style conviviality (but beautiful enough to keep on permanent display),” she says. “Every six months to a year, we’ll release a new capsule collection of platters in a range of media (from ceramic to wood to papier-maché, etc.), bringing together works by artisans and fine artists alike, many I’ve known from my years of working in the art and design worlds.”
The first collection includes six platters made by LA-based artists Raina Lee and Kymia Nawabi, Norfolk-based potter Edmund Davies, Petaluma-based ceramicist Zoe Dering, and Philadelphia-based ceramic artist Jordan McDonald.
