The “Bol Café au Lait” is a ALINE JULIE classic. A handleless, round ceramic bowl traditionally used in France for drinking café au lait or hot chocolate. An object that is closely tied to the French breakfast ritual: dipping a piece of baguette or a croissant into warm milk coffee—best done from a “Bol”.
The connection between porcelain and teeth dates back to the 18th century, when Alexis Duchâteau developed the first artificial teeth made of porcelain. Originally a symbol of elegance and fragility, this material found its way into the human body. This piece celebrates the cultural significance of teeth in our society—serving both as a scent diffuser or jewelry organizer.
The Toast Rack is a kitchen tool for holding slices of toasted bread on the breakfast, tea or dinner table. It has mostly been used since the 18th century in UK. Due to the gaps between the partitions, the toast refrains from becoming soggy, as it does when it’s simply placed on a plate. The toast rack allows the vapor to escape from the toast, hence why it’s a quintessential object to have in the home. A toast rack should definitely never be out of fashion.
