Just in time for Rosh Hashanah, Tollman's Dot is launching the highly-anticipated HAY "Barro" tableware and serving collection, a fascinating fusion of Portuguese artistry and Danish design.
According to Osnat Bar-Nahor, VP of Homeware and Accessories at Tollman's Dot: “Barro is not just a collection of tableware, but a cultural expression that connects the long-standing tradition of terracotta with a contemporary, urban lifestyle. The collection responds to the demand for natural materials that evoke nostalgic feelings, adding warmth to both the table and the home.”
The Danish design brand HAY is introducing Barro, a tableware, serving, and hosting collection designed by renowned Portuguese designer Rui Pereira. Made entirely from terracotta, the collection emphasizes the rustic beauty of the material while incorporating contemporary Scandinavian design aesthetics.
Rui Pereira, known for combining classical traditions with modern aesthetics, has created a unique collection for HAY that exudes warmth, comfort, and everyday simplicity. Each piece in the collection was designed with respect for the raw material, aiming to merge functionality with distinctive design that aligns with the spirit of the Danish brand.
The collection’s name, "Barro," is Portuguese for "red clay," representing Pereira's appreciation for the tradition of terracotta and its various uses throughout history.
“As a Portuguese native, terracotta has always been a part of my memories and daily life,” says Pereira. “Warm, simple terracotta pieces have always belonged to the people—from street markets and restaurants to homes across Portugal. It’s a material for everyone, passed down through generations.”
The Barro collection is intended for those who appreciate natural beauty and sustainable materials. These pieces express values of sustainability and authentic craftsmanship, turning every meal into a celebration. The collection, featuring tableware, serving, and hosting items, is characterized by its rounded shapes and rich colors, offering endless possibilities for mixing and matching.
The Barro collection is available exclusively at Tollman's Dot stores and online. To celebrate the launch, customers can enjoy a 10% discount until Saturday, September 21, using the coupon code HAY10.
