The sediment filter, SCB filter (secondary sediment + pre-carbon filter), UV light, and SAPC technology make up the five-stage purification process, which eliminates dangerous microorganisms in the water and ensures the greatest levels of purity. The INVI-U1 water purifier is designed for locations where total dissolved solids (TDS) levels are less than 200 ppm. Commenting on the launch, Mr. Parag Kulkarni, Managing Director, A. O.

Spectacular L’OBJET Haas Brothers Collection by Emery Studio Emery Studio, a bespoke decorative lighting, home décor, and tableware expert, has brought to India an amazing new line from the namesake brand L'OBJET called L'OBJET Haas Brothers. L'OBJET Haas Brothers is the result of a collaboration between creative brains and talented hands. The Los Angeles-based artists Simon and Nikolai Haas collaborated closely with Elad Yifrach, Creative Director, and the master craftsmen at L'OBJET to develop a family of characterful animals with the highest quality of finish and function, inspired by the surreal environment of Joshua Tree. The L'OBJET design team created a variety of size and function forms that the brothers utilised as canvases for their creative dreams. The designs were 3D printed and transported from the Brothers' LA workshop to the L'OBJET porcelain factory in Portugal. The brothers travelled to Portugal with Elad to personally work and sculpt each prototype before making moulds suitable for porcelain pouring. L'OBJET Haas Brothers captures a delicate balance between employing technology to help a complicated and precise process while maintaining the hand as the primary tool. Tableware, home décor, fabrics, and scent are all part of the dream world. All pieces are not only attractively crafted, but also elegantly practical, in keeping with the L'OBJET brand concept. The tableware is decorated with quirky Mojave Desert patterns, creating the tone for the collection's imagination. Signature Haas Brother textures appear throughout the home décor and textile categories: hand-carved scales, porcelain ‘fur,' and fanciful horns give a humorous twist to otherwise naturalistic forms. Elad Yifrach, Founder and Creative Director of L'OBJET, said, It's a whole fantasy universe, brought together with a particular and abundant point of view. Second Skin Series The most hardy members of the Haas monster family evolved a magical second skin to help them withstand the harsh environment of the Mojave Desert. They glisten by day and pulse by night, providing protection from the harsh sun and cold evenings. There are 12 hand-painted designs in the Second Skin Vessel Series, each with a limited edition of 15. Mojave Palm Papyrus, guaiac wood, balsam fir, patchouli, and frankincense are included in this new scent by renowned perfumer Yann Vasnier. One-wick carved porcelain votive, four-wick unicorn monster candle, and Japanese incense are all available.
