Serax's Earth papier-mâché dish embodies the essence of contemporary artisanal design. This hand-sculpted piece combines the raw poetry of recycled material with an organic form that transcends the ordinary.
A collaboration between designer Marie Michielssen and the Belgian house Serax, this white papier-mâché dish stands out for its assumed authenticity. Each piece bears the marks of its manual manufacture: surface irregularities, subtle tonal variations, and a matte texture that gives the object an undeniable singularity. Its generous dimensions (Ø 45 cm x H 16 cm) make it a powerful decorative element, while its lightness (1 kg) preserves a rare delicacy. The recycled papier-mâché, a noble and responsible material, highlights the brand's aesthetic and ethical commitment.
The Serax brand
Founded in Antwerp in the late 1980s by brothers Serge and Axel Van den Bossche, Serax has established itself as a reference in contemporary Belgian design. The brand embodies the philosophy of accessible beautiful design, collaborating with international designers and manufacturers to offer everyday objects with a true aesthetic soul. Serax restores meaning and nobility to ordinary life gestures.
This Earth dish reveals Serax's technical mastery in working with papier-mâché. Formed using artisanal methods, the recycled material guarantees durability and distinctive character. The absence of a glossy finish preserves raw authenticity, while the slightly off-white color creates a minimalist and timeless palette. Its generous dimensions (Ø 45 cm) allow for varied use: presenting fruits, floral arrangements, or as a standalone decorative object. Its light weight facilitates handling and placement on a console or shelf. Every surface irregularity testifies to the creative gesture.
The Earth dish naturally fits into a refined and thoughtful decor. On a contemporary coffee table, it discreetly and elegantly holds fruits, flowers, or collectibles. Placed on an entrance console, it creates a striking sensory first impression. As part of a shelf composition, combined with other Serax pieces or graphic minimalism, it reinforces a calm and intentional atmosphere. Its matte texture subtly dialogues with natural textiles (linen, hemp) and light wood. Ideal for Nordic, Japandi, or contemporary chic interiors.
Investing in this Earth dish means acquiring a timeless piece signed by Belgian design. An object that ages gracefully and reveals its authenticity over time.
