Taste of India

Renowned for its timeless furniture, Cassina is now turning its attention to the smaller but no less important objects in the home. As part of this new direction, the brand has collaborated with fellow Italian firm Ginori 1735 on a series of platters in tribute to the prolific Le Corbusier. ‘Collection Chandigarh’ takes bas-relief motifs from the buildings in the Indian city, designed by the architect in 1956, and applies them to matt white porcelain trays. From £222 each (cassina.com).
