Schotel, deel van een theeservies 1934

This is a saucer, part of a tea set, created by Petrus Regout. Observe the simplicity of its form. The concentric circles create a sense of harmony and balance. The subtle indentation in the center functions not only as a practical element for holding a teacup but also as a focal point that draws the eye inward. The color is uniformly beige which evokes feelings of warmth and earthiness. This monochrome palette emphasizes the shape and texture of the ceramic material. Regout uses these elements to create a functional object and engages in the discourse of domesticity and everyday life. The saucer challenges the traditional boundaries between art and utilitarian objects. In its understated elegance, we find a reflection on the aesthetics of the mundane and the beauty of functional design.
