Overview

Michelin star rated chef Sergio Herman created the brand new Inku tableware in collaboration with Serax. Inspired by the Japanese sense of sophistication and imperfect perfection, Inku tableware has clear references to shell shapes, blossoms and the abstract structures of nature. “With Inku tableware, we can not only decorate the plate nicely but complete tables with blossoms in ceramics,” says Herman, who will use the tableware in the brand new Le Pristine brasserie in Antwerp. “I don’t just view it as our task to inspire people from a culinary perspective, but I also want to create that with table decoration” To make that picture completely perfect, the collection is augmented by fine glassware.

Serax Philosophy is to look for beauty everyday, “to bring the good things that make life worth living, the things that create a home that inspires happiness”, to offer products that have soul. Every collection is crafted traditionally.
