One of Cassandra's favourite designs is inspired by Constantinople, the ancient city of Christendom. Her Topkapi design, named after The Topkapi Palace, which was a short walk from Sogukcesme Sokak street where Cassandra stayed in the Sultanahmet. It was here, in one of the rooms of the palace, Cassandra found complete 'diamond encrusted tea services' and bowls full of the 'hubbly bubbly' pipe ends. It was the detail on one of these pipe ends that inspired the Topkapi design, with its intricate diamond settings.
