Won’t you be (mela)mine?
Love your ceramics collection, but not so keen on keeping it poolside? The Sandia collection of dishware mimics the natural curves and irregularities of hand-thrown pottery, without its propensity to break. In fact, melamine is shatter-proof, dishwasher-safe, worry-free stuff that’s lightweight and easy to cart inside and out. Kid-friendly is now all grown up, with Sandia’s all-natural palette (in adobe and bianco) and organic forms.
