A Personal Journey into Spring's Embrace
For years, the FLEUR Collection has held a special place in my heart, and in yours. Its delicate petal edge motif, a whisper of nature's artistry, has always been a touchstone. This season, the call to revisit FLEUR grew irresistible, inspiring me to explore new forms and functions while remaining deeply rooted in its signature organic language.
My creative journey for Spring 2026 began with a singular vision: 'spring joy.' I envisioned flowers unfurling, the gentle rhythm of new growth, and the profound lightness that accompanies the season's renewal. This collection is my invitation to bring that same sense of happiness and natural beauty into your home, transforming everyday moments into celebrations.
Nature, for me, is both blueprint and muse. It's an endless wellspring of inspiration and the emotional tone I strive to capture in every piece. I believe we are intrinsically connected to the natural world, and my work aims to echo that bond, reminding us of the quiet elegance and vibrant energy of our ecosystem. The FLEUR language, while not a literal representation, evokes the feeling of being enveloped by natural beauty – that distinct sense of lightness and joy that only spring can bring.
In my design philosophy, function and beauty are inseparable partners. An object's true meaning emerges when it is both exquisitely crafted and inherently useful. The new FLEUR Serving Set embodies this synergy perfectly. Its scalloped forms, echoing delicate petals, don't just add sculptural beauty; they serve a practical purpose, gently cradling and lifting delicate salad leaves with an effortless grace. What surprised me most during its creation was how quickly this piece came together – once I began sculpting the petals with their functional curve, everything clicked, as if the design was simply waiting to emerge.
The New Oval Forms: Versatility and Grace
This season, I'm thrilled to introduce three new oval forms, each designed to enhance your serving and gathering experiences. Inspired by the softness and rhythm of natural blooms, these pieces are sculpted with gentle curves and a quiet sense of movement. The oval bowls feel generous without being heavy, making them ideal for salads, shared dishes, or as a captivating centerpiece.
The FLEUR Small Oval Bowl brings the collection's floral language to a more intimate scale, perfect for individual servings, condiments, or as a charming accent in a layered tablescape.
The FLEUR Large Oval Bowl offers generous capacity for family-style serving, maintaining the refined proportions that define FLEUR. It's perfect for vibrant salads, hearty pasta, or abundant fruit displays.
For grander occasions, the FLEUR Extra Large Oval Bowl makes a striking statement. Its substantial size effortlessly handles crowd-pleasing portions, yet its gentle curves ensure it never feels heavy, always elegant.
Harmonizing with the FLEUR Collection
This expansion is a natural evolution, not a shift, in the FLEUR narrative. My initial vision remains: each piece should feel like part of a cohesive family, yet possess the strength to stand beautifully on its own. These new oval forms integrate seamlessly with existing FLEUR pieces, allowing you to mix and match with original round bowls and serving pieces. This creates dynamic table settings that feel thoughtfully collected, rather than merely matched. The shared language of organic curves and forms ties everything together, while the variety of shapes and scales adds captivating visual interest. For those new to FLEUR, these versatile ovals offer an accessible and elegant entry point into the collection.
The Heart of Handcraft
Every piece in the FLEUR collection is more than just an object; it's a vessel of intention and care. When you hold one, I hope you feel the love and dedication poured into its creation, the quiet energy transmitted through the hands that sculpted it. This commitment to craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do.
Handcrafted in San Francisco
Like all pieces from TF Design, the new FLEUR ovals are handcrafted in small batches in San Francisco. Each piece is hand-cast and hand-finished from food-safe, lead-free resin. The smooth surfaces and balanced proportions come from careful attention during every stage of production.
The matte finish develops character over time, getting better with use rather than showing wear. These are pieces designed to be used regularly, to hold your favorite meals and become part of your entertaining rituals.
