The atomium egg cup

A clean and simple design for the Atomium egg cup, which, as its names suggests, is in the shape of an atom… Designer Christian Ghion and Michelin-starred chef Pierre Gagnaire pooled their creativity and know-how to come up with the perfect solution for serving the most basic and delicate food: the egg. Formed from the union of three spheres, the Atomium brilliantly solves the problem of adapting the cup to fit varied shapes of eggs. The egg comes into contact with all three spheres, which provide three points of support to keep it in place. The Atomium is made from melamine and is available in two colours: white and yellow. It can also be stacked to save space.
