ÉDITION BLEUET
With the "Édition Bleuet", KPM is launching four products in the same blue cornflower decoration sprouts on the To-Go mug, the Cadre vases, the Vide Poche mug, the Cadre vases, the Vide Poche and an ornate bust of Luisen. Luisen bust.
The cornflower, as simple and plain as it seems, was Queen Luise's favorite flower - she wove wreaths with her children and her grave was her grave with fresh flowers by Frederick Wilhelm. Reason reason enough for KPM to paint the blossoms with an almost transparent brushstroke on the iconic bust of Luisen by Johann Gottfried Schadow, which depicts the Schadow, which immortalizes the "good queen" with a sensitively with a sensitively worked face.
And because the flower was seen as a symbol of change and progress during the Romantic period and progress, the large-format flower with its almost flowing blossom with its almost flowing leaves still works today: from Classicism to Sixites - a style-defining decor for all times.
A LOOK BEHIND THE SCENES
POUR AND GARNISH
The individual parts produced by casting are assembled (garnished) with paste-like porcelain mass. When garnishing, work must be carried out quickly so that the parts do not dry out. Seams are neatly plastered. Finally, the finished product is worked over again with brushes and sponges so that any irregularities disappear.
GLAZING
The bust is dipped by hand into a tub filled with glaze. The absorption capacity of the blank and the dipping time determine the thickness of the glaze layer and its distribution. If the product design requires unglazed areas, as in the case of biscuit porcelain (here the drapery and the neckline of the dress), these are carefully covered by hand with wax or a special varnish.
IN MASTER PAINTING
After firing, the Luisen bust is given the limited "Édition Bleuet" adornment in our master painting studio: the cornflower, Queen Luise's favorite flower. Bringing the blossoms to life with almost transparent brushstrokes on her portrait.
