Lens Dinnerware

Carlo Van Poucke is a ceramic artist based in Ghent, Belgium, whose practice centers on the elemental processes of working with clay. His work spans functional objects and fine art ceramics, always guided by a clean, pared-back aesthetic.

The Lens collection is crafted from ceramic, with forms shaped through Van Poucke's research into the relationship between clay, water, air, and fire. The resulting pieces have a handcrafted quality that gives each item subtle individual character.

Serax designs its dinnerware collections for functional use at the table. For specific care instructions, including dishwasher and microwave compatibility, refer to the product documentation included with each piece.

The collection is designed as a cohesive system of shapes and sizes, allowing different plates and bowls to be composed together. The consistent design language across the range makes mixing intentional rather than incidental.

Founded in Belgium, Serax occupies a distinct position in European design by collaborating closely with independent artists, ceramicists, and designers. The brand treats tableware and home objects as vehicles for genuine artistic expression rather than purely commercial production.
