A bright new dawn for Waterford Crystal

A celebrated New York-based designer with a home in New Delhi, he said his bone-china and metal collections for Waterford Wedgwood Royal Doulton (WWRD) are something he would like to think can be “used and abused“.

Aram doesn’t want his Indian-inspired dinnerware to be hidden in a mahogany cabinet but to “be loved every day” and “in the dishwasher each night”. While his crystal designs might be best far from that particular household appliance, he doesn’t want people to be terrified of drinking from his wine glasses and champagne flutes.
