Separelli’s cake stands—Vintage plates paired with antique glassware.
This year, at ICFF Design Boom, amidst a sea of sleek, modern and sustainable sits Southern Vermont-based Separelli. A simple concept, Separelli takes vintage and antique dinner plates—the individual survivors of sets long-since broken and lost—and gives them a second life as cake platters. While it’s hard to say what a dinner plate aspires to in terms of nirvana, coming back as a cake platter seems a fair assumption.
Designer Sepi Alavi combs through antique stores in the search of perfect plates and then pairs the plates with vintage glassware, which functions as the platter’s stem. Using a two-part epoxy compound to marry the two pieces, Alavi makes one-of-a-kind, repurposed displays that are a functional (the epoxy is water resistant!) blast from the past.
Constructed with a two-part, water proof epoxy—Separelli’s individualized platters.
