These fine bone china plates were originally produced by uber Japanese ceramics company Noritake as part of the Qantas First Class range. When Marc Newson redesigned Qantas in 2007, these plates were discarded. Ceramicist Gregory Bonasera has taken these ‘redundant’ blank canvases and adorned them with stunning furnishing illustrations from the 18th century, completing their journey from dutiful through discarded and back to desired.
