Serax Inku Cast Iron Cup

Discover the Inku Cast Iron Cup by Serax, a striking piece from the tableware collection designed by celebrated chef Sergio Herman. Inspired by his culinary travels through Japan, Herman fell under the spell of the country's pure, understated tableware traditions, and channeled that fascination into the Inku collection. The result is an object that embraces the Japanese philosophy of imperfect perfection, with subtle references to shell shapes, blossoms and the abstract structures found in nature.

Crafted from solid cast iron in a deep black finish, this cup carries a raw, tactile quality that feels both grounded and refined. Many pieces in the Inku collection are finished by hand, meaning slight irregularities may occur — a detail that only reinforces the individual character of each cup rather than detracting from it.

Compact and beautifully proportioned, the cup measures 6.7 x 6.7 x 7.3 cm, weighs 0.44 kg, and holds a capacity of 15 cl. It is food-safe, making it perfectly suited for everyday use at the table, though it is not dishwasher, microwave, oven or salamander resistant, so gentle hand care is recommended to preserve its finish over time.

Part of a broader collection that also includes fine glassware, the Inku Cast Iron Cup allows you to bring Sergio Herman's culinary and design vision — first realized at Le Pristine brasserie in Antwerp — directly into your own home. A refined addition for those who appreciate craftsmanship, nature-inspired forms, and considered simplicity.
