The Tap Water Carafe is made of unglazed stoneware. This material has the remarkable ability to cool water without the use of a refrigerator.
With its traditionally produced Tap Water Carafe , Lotte de Raadt wants to promote the use of tap water. Dutch tap water is top quality drinking water and 2000 times cheaper than bottled water. More importantly, it does not require any environmentally polluting plastic bottles or transport.
The shape of the carafe refers to the origin of Dutch water. The high bottle with a long neck refers to water deep from the ground. The low, bulky bottle is the ideal shape for collecting surface water. The third can be filled with dune water. The stopper clearly refers to the place where the contents are tapped: from the tap, of course!
