This set of twelve cups with handles and two bowls by Dorre exemplifies Scandinavian design from the 1970s, defined by minimalist form and functional clarity. Each piece is crafted from metal, with a warm, polished copper exterior and a silver-toned, likely tin- or nickel-plated interior. The cups feature a cylindrical shape that gently tapers toward the base, while the bowls have a wide, open silhouette. The copper handles are smoothly integrated into the cup bodies, forming rounded ergonomic lines. Absence of decoration or engraving emphasizes the modernist, utilitarian character of the set. The smooth, glossy surface reflects light, enhancing the copper’s rich tone. The set is preserved in very good condition, with no visible signs of wear, dents, or discoloration.The cups and bowls tell the story of Swedish daily life in the 1970s, when simplicity was a conscious response to excess. Their form channels the spirit of functional modernism: copper gleams like morning light in a minimalist kitchen, while the cool, silver interiors evoke a respect for practicality. This is an echo of an era when design was meant to be present in life, not to dominate it, and every detail—such as the seamlessly integrated handle—was created for the comfort of shared moments and conversation.This set could be used for serving coffee or tea in a living or dining room styled in mid-century modern, Scandinavian, or contemporary fashion. It would pair well with raw wood, white ceramics, or glassware with geometric shapes. One might combine it with neutral-toned textiles or minimalist decorations to highlight the copper’s metallic sheen. In eclectic interiors, the set could offer a striking counterpoint to colorful accessories or vintage fabrics, while in more restrained spaces, it could serve as a vivid yet understated accent.No additional
