ALVA’s newest collection, Apicoados, showcases handcrafted Brazilian soapstone vessels – Pico, Largo, and Coco. Through the Apicoado technique – a gentle hammering of stone surface with a nail – ALVA’s artisans enhance the pieces with a nature-inspired texture and distinctive bush-hammered finish.
With pastel and silvery earthy tones, polished interior, and serene contours, the Apicoados-collection is pleasing to the eye and soul. They rise above functionality, and pay homage to the timeless beauty of soapstone and contemporary Brazilian design.
