A company that has grabbed my attention this month is Bison. Their range comprises of beautifully crafted dinnerware and decorator pieces that are made using 100% green energy.
Founder, Brian Tunks, began his career as an archaeologist. It was his work on Greco-Roman excavations in the middle east that made him fall in love with ceramics. It was during this time that he realised ceramics were one of the most significant symbols of great civilizations and he too wanted to produce something that perhaps would see another 40,000 years!
Personally, I find it fascinating when I visit a museum and see primitive utensils and homewares that are thousands of years old. Not only does it give you a sense of where we have been in terms of utilitarian design but in some cases, it shows you that not a lot has changed in terms of workmanship and form.
Each piece is modern, fresh and extremely durable. Bison uses fine Australian stoneware clay that is lead-free and can be used in the oven, microwave and dishwasher.
Now Sydneysiders can experience these fantastic products by visiting their new flagship store in Paddington.
