The treasure box - a place to store individual treasures and personal treasures. What special pieces did Queen Louise of Prussia once keep in her box? The limited edition of the "Boite de Louise" tells stories of her time and, with its contemporary design, invites you to indulge in your own favorite pieces again and again.
HERMANN AUGUST WEIZENEGGER
KPM chief designer Thomas Wenzel and industrial designer Hermann August Weizenegger collaborated to develop this fascinatingly versatile jewelry box. The first thing that catches the eye is the intricately crafted glass lid. To create it, Weizenegger drew on the long-forgotten technique of producing glass beads for chandeliers. Each glass blank is individually pressed by hand and then ground and polished. The smoky hue is created by metallic particles applied through a complex high-vacuum process. As a result, every lid is a one-of-a-kind, handcrafted piece.

WHAT SPECIAL ITEMS DID QUEEN LUISE OF PRUSSIA ONCE KEEP IN HER BOX?
The porcelain body, the centerpiece of the piece of jewelry, is proof of the manufactory's unique expertise. The virtuosity in working with porcelain is evident in the diamond-cutting process, in which the porcelain piece is perfected by hand. Thomas Wenzel further developed the design by industrial designer Weizenegger and transferred it to the special features of this precious material. The combination of the deep black color of the object's exterior with the shiny gold interior exudes something mysterious and mystical.
