DressCoat from Zieher was created by glass and porcelain designer Nadine Podewski . The design is reminiscent of set tables , characterized by the apparently free-falling drapery of a tablecloth , which creates a seemingly weightless , almost floating effect . A slightly concave-shaped surface offers space for artful dishes and avoids the sloshing of sauce . DressCoat is available in three different sizes . Besides the main application as a plateau plate each item can also be used as bowl . Zieher , Himmelkron , Germany . zieher . com , info @ zieher . com
