Category: Cups and Mugs

The graceful Kuru Kuru is composed of a tray, carafe and cup, three elements that hark back to their archetypes. By reinterpreting simple shapes of universal tradition, Naoto Fukasawa creates new objects of daily use. Kuru Kuru is a Japanese term for the turning-lathe, the main technique used to make the three objects. The humble forms breathe with elegance and kindness, while quiet power transpires from their continuous, flowing outline. The three objects are available separately, in two versions: stainless steel and stainless steel with copper PVD coating.

Avery U. ★★★★★

The three-piece setup looks like a small sculpture on my counter, and the cup's handle is surprisingly comfortable for how thin it is. I use the carafe for water at dinner and the tray keeps everything tidy.

Julian ★★★★★

The carafe pours without a single drip, which I didn't expect from something this simple-looking. I keep it on my desk just for water now, and the cup's thin rim makes even tap water feel a bit nicer.

Sebastian ★★★★★

The tray and cup sit so nicely together on my counter, it's like a little sculpture that happens to hold my morning coffee. The carafe's spout is the real winner though, pours slow and even without dripping onto the tray.
