SALONE DEL RICOTTA SIDE TABLE
by ALEX AND TRAHANAS
ALEX AND TRAHANAS is a lifestyle and design studio founded by Alexandra Heard and Heleena Trahanas. It is inspired by the sun-drenched terraces of the Mediterranean, the joyful chaos of seaside trattorias and tavernas, and the shared pleasure of delicious food and wine gathered around a table. Their collections celebrate precious, handmade objects that transform everyday moments into luxurious occasions.
On a recent trip to Puglia, the duo spent time with artisanal ricotta cheesemakers, diving into the traditional farm-to-table process behind this richly textured cheese. It was here—amongst curds and whey—that the two avid formaggio-lovers found inspiration. Watching fresh ricotta spill from printed casings, they imagined a new series of sculptural objects for the table.
Crafted from clay—a signature material for ALEX AND TRAHANAS—the Salone del Ricotta collection was born. These hand-built pieces include a side table, a Champagne bath, and an aperitivo bowl, each finished with an indulgent ricotta-like texture. Together, they create a richly layered aperitivo scene—playful, evocative, and endlessly summery.
Materials: Ceramic
Dimensions: 470 H × 360 D mm
