What if “the good dishes” could be used every day? Come meet the everyday elegance of the Medaillon Collection.
When this porcelain tableware was first introduced in the early 1960s, it was quickly taken note of as avant garde and a departure from the norm. Gone were the baroque patterns of the last centuries, replaced by the quintessence of simplicity.
Made by German company Rosenthal’s Thomas brand, Medaillon is remarkable for its clean lines and minimalist design. Rosenthal itself was founded in 1879 and prides itself on working only “with artists and designers who may well represent differing directions, but have all dedicated themselves to designing contemporary originals of our times.”
Medaillon, whose name translates from French to our near-cognate “medallion,” is named for the shape echoed throughout the collection, inspiring even the handles on the creamer, teapot, and mug. Its forward-thinking design has garnered it a place in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art.
Practical yet timeless. Suitable for the everyday or the special occasion. We love Medaillon for its clean design and unlimited versatility.
