Just as every family unit is beautiful in their differences and similarities, so to is the Family Tea set. Inspired by genetics and lineage, it can actually be considered a family itself. In fact, it was inspired by the designer's own family tree.
Conceived and created by Argentinian art director and product designer Paula Benvegnú, the Family Tea set is comprised of 30 ceramic mugs and a tea kettle. Although each piece seems almost identical to the next since they share a similar color palette, they are actually quite unique unto each other. Just like no two people are the same, no two mugs are the same either in this collection.
The Family Tea set also features the designer's family seal and little spoons with each person’s name and birth date inscribed on it.
