As one set of Met Home's most favorite designing brother duos, the Bouroullec Brothers' new Wajima Collection has the French duo overseas to utilize ancient Japanese lacquer ware technique of Wajima. In this first time collaboration with Japan Brand, known for their craft and aesthetics, the pair created four designs that contain geometric shapes for culinary, domestic and nomadic applications.
