Product Details
The Isidora Teacup takes its name from one of Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities — the city a traveller imagines before arriving, where desire and reality can never fully reconcile. CTRLZAK Studio translates that friction into fine bone porcelain for Seletti's Hybrid collection: two decorative traditions that each imagined the other and got it gloriously wrong.
The cup's surface is split by a bold graphic seam — chinoiserie florals and Eastern scrollwork on one side, European heraldic ornament on the other. CTRLZAK's point is the line itself: these traditions don't blend, they face each other. At teacup scale — held in both hands, brought close — that confrontation is impossible to ignore.
In Dubai, where both decorative worlds share the same skylines and drawing rooms, the Isidora Teacup reads as a pointed observation. Use it in a majlis or on a villa terrace, or build a deliberately mismatched Hybrid tea service — pair it with the Zenobia or Kannauj teacup for a table that was designed to disagree.

Care & Use
Fine porcelain tableware with a durable vitrified body and hard, glazed, food-safe surface. It resists staining and odour, but can chip on impact or crack under sudden thermal shock; plain undecorated porcelain is microwave-safe, while any gold, platinum or metallic detailing must never be microwaved, and porcelain is not for the oven or freezer.
Care: Hand-wash decorated pieces in warm water with mild soap and a soft sponge, then dry immediately; wash promptly after acidic or strongly coloured foods.
Avoid: Microwave use on metallic detailing; the oven and freezer; sudden hot-cold changes; abrasive pads, steel wool, scouring powders, undiluted bleach, knocks and drops.
Suitable for: Formal dining, everyday table settings, tea and coffee service, plated starters and desserts.
More from This Collection
Hybrid
HYBRID stages a collision of worlds on fine bone porcelain. Created by Seletti with CTRLZAK studio, each piece splits down a bold coloured line: Eastern chinoiserie — peonies, dragons, willow trees — on one side, European heraldic ornament on the other.
