Thomas »Cucina«
The »Cucina« collection by the Thomas (formerly Arzberg) brand was created in keeping with the philosophy of "good form for every day". Hans-Wilhelm Seitz designed this timeless form in 2001. Seitz is a trained ceramic modeller and form designer. You can see from his porcelain that the designs were modelled by hand with great skill and not constructed using a 3D computer program. This also applies to Thomas »Cucina«. Hans-Wilhelm Seitz himself says of his work: "A well-designed form should have an impact through its naturalness, be understood by everyone in its clarity and simplicity and be familiar like a good friend (quote)."
What is striking about Thomas »Cucina« is the straight lines of the cups. The consistent conical shape can be found in all coffee cups - for espresso, coffee & co., café au lait - and in the mug. The thick walls of the Cucina cups are inspired by Italian models. This means that the contents of the cup stay hot for a long time, and in addition to this practical advantage, the feel and appearance of Thomas »Cucina« interpret Italian coffee culture very skilfully. The bowls and dishes are designed to be pleasingly round as a contrast, as this shape follows function: whether you are dressing salad with salad servers or spooning muesli from a small bowl - the semi-circular shape combines aesthetics and user-friendliness.
Since 2013, the traditional brand Arzberg has been part of Rosenthal GmbH. As Rosenthal simplifies its brand structure, the Arzberg forms Cucina and Tric will henceforth be offered under the Thomas brand, while the form 1382 and Joyn will be integrated into the Rosenthal label.
Through this integration, Rosenthal aims to enhance the internationality and visibility of the four successful Arzberg forms even further. The high quality and outstanding design of the collections will remain unchanged. The products will only receive a new base stamp.
