A name drawn from the depths of ancient myth. In Sumerian mythology, Abzu refers to the primordial freshwater ocean — the sacred source from which all life emerges. It symbolizes the origins of creation, the hidden layers of nature, and the rhythm of existence. In this context, ABZU is more than a vessel; it’s a metaphor for returning to essence. Every curve and contour of the plate evokes the elemental, the eternal, and the serene power of water at its purest form.

Designed exclusively for Manzara Söğüt, a refined seafood restaurant set against the natural beauty of Marmaris, the ABZU plate collection was handcrafted by Gaiagerra using artisanal stoneware techniques. The plates are tailored for seafood presentation, seamlessly blending the organic texture of the material with the ritual of fine dining. In every dish served, the harmony between the freshness of the sea and the primal design of the ABZU plate offers a refined and grounded culinary experience — where origin meets elegance.
