Alma Fortune Cup.: “

Your fortune according to your crockery! Redstr/Collective has created the Alma Fortune cups & saucer range based on an abstraction and reinterpretation of Turkish coffee fortune telling (a kind of tasseography.) Ground up pigments serve to create the fortunes, which are fixed as permanent decoration on the items, and allow each cup and saucer to be set with it’s own unique fortune.

The cup and saucers, which are currently being produced by Areaware, are now also available in a limited edition collaboration with Tobias Wong. Wong has taken the Alma Fortune cup & saucer sets to a new level of esoteric luxury by suspending the fortunes in 22ct Gold!
