The clean and simple lines of Lastra were inspired by the circular wooden slab used for centuries to create the outer mold in cheesemaking throughout Italy. When fashioned together with twine, the hoop was left with a slight overlap to help maintain the shape of the cheese mold. Maestro molder Stefano Roselli incorporates the overlapping detail into the entire design, from its foot to its rim. A dark dusting on the edges of each piece suggests the ash that was used to preserve these cheeses and highlights each unique silhouette. The Lastra White Stoneware Pasta Bowl is an elegantly sophisticated piece with rustic edges. The pasta serving bowl's shape was inspired by the straps used to form Italian cheese for centuries.
