Hehe, probably not.

I had a look at the other photos from th exhibition, and while I could not get a conclusive answer to what that was exhibiting, or what company it was, I did find a photo you can zoom in futher on:

It kinda looks like they are exhibiting cookwares or dinnerwares.

Looks like vases and pottery/ceramics to me. Some of which would probably be cookwares.
