Dune Lines is among the exceptional new dinnerware designs presented by Villeroy & Boch that takes shape to a new dimension. Not quite oval, the subtle contours of the sensuous, organic form were inspired by nature's own creation of sand dunes and those voluptuous mounds that arise in the desert. Adding definition and visual interest to the individual pieces is relief detailing of wavy striping.
