L'Objet |

L’OBJET is the vision of Elad Yifrach. Quality is his mantra, and all the firm’s offerings are his own original designs.
A lifelong traveler and devotee of the Mediterranean, Elad is enamored of its peoples and ways, and especially its venerable traditions of craft. His designs, on the one hand, represent a spirited homage to these great artisans and their achievements. But he also aspires to extend and exceed them, as his work makes clear, through painstaking effort and imagination, to the very pinnacle of excellence.
Roll your fingers over the sharply contoured relief of this porcelain finish—quality like this is to
be caressed—and you will feel the weight and the depth and delicacy that Elad craves. This is passion. Elad believes you never give up on passion. It is imagination. It is invention. But most
of all—this being the Mediterranean trait par excellence—it is commitment to a life of beauty.
Only later did Elad branch into the precious metals. In the beginning it was porcelain that obsessed him. Looking for the crisp and vibrant expression of its most exquisite aspects, he wanted to make it do things it had never done before. Toward this end, he was forced to break down and rethink traditional technique, straining it—and the credulity of its expert technicians—to bursting. Thus, he tirelessly pursued the world’s foremost workshops. He approached them with humility. But, “You cannot do that,” they said, “It cannot be done.” Porcelain cannot to be made to hold such forms, nor gold finishes shine so brilliantly.
