Furstenberg Qi fine china dinnerware designed by Kap-Sun Hwang is available in pieces or as a dinnerware set including the Qi dinner plate, salad plate, soup bowl, cereal bowl, and tea cup. Inspired by Asiatic philosophies of life, the 5-piece set of bowls redefines the concepts of surface and its tactile qualities. A special ceramic glaze in delicate blue-green reflecting the greenish clay in Korea, creates a silky, shimmering effect on the smooth inner surfaces seen here for the very first time on porcelain. In contrast, the unglazed exterior surfaces are polished to create a velvety sensation to the touch. It is dishwasher and microwave safe.
