The PHI collection is named for the letter of the Greek alphabet that represents the golden ratio – perfectly balanced proportions, a notion dear to Jean Puiforcat. With its pure and fluid lines, the PHI coffee pot is made from silver-plated brass fashioned and assembled by hand in Puiforcat's workshops, while the finial & handle are crafted in American walnut. The piece also features a strainer at the base of the spout to filter the beverage while pouring.
The timeless design of PHI was created by Normal Studio, where Jean-François Dingjian and Eloi Chafaï practice what they themselves call "Elementary Design." Specifically, they seek out the perfect shape, the perfect proportions to accentuate use while underscoring the simplicity and elegance in the details.
