Designer Yinka Ilori has designed the beautiful Epin Rere collection which is a vibrant range of stoneware meant to grab attention at one's dinner party. The name of the capsule translates to 'My Destiny' in Yoruba and the limited range is comprised of hand-finished players, a platter, a vase, and a jug.
The harmonious capsule is sculptural and serene with inspiration from peaceful waters and captivating sunsets in Lagos. All of the products capture the magical time of the day with reflections of the calm sea. The plates are offered in four colorways: Green, Purple, Blue, and Orange. The hand-finished designs all have a meditative design and mesmerizing ombre hue with ribbed textures that purposefully mimic ripples in water.
