ONION-SHAPED VASE

Product description

With its strictly limited edition "Crystal Glaze Blue-Green," Royal Porcelain Manufactory brings a traditional glazing technique into the present day. In the manufactory's in-house laboratory, Dr. Hamid Zadeh, head of the KPM laboratory and the mass factory, has redeveloped the art of crystal glazes – giving the iconic Krukenform, Halle , and Zwiebelform vases a unique shine. An elaborate development process resulted in a lead-free glaze that builds on the foundations of the manufactory's crystal glaze from 1898. 

"Every glaze is a little experiment—it depends on chance, temperature, and time," explains Dr. Zadeh. The liquid glaze is applied by hand using a finely tuned spraying process. Each piece develops a unique surface texture during application – no two objects are alike. The vases are then fired at around 1,300 degrees Celsius, and each piece becomes a dazzling one-of-a-kind item.

The vases, which sparkle in an iridescent blue-green color, combine contemporary materials research with centuries-old craftsmanship, making them unique collector's items and modern design objects.

The onion-shaped vase in blue-green crystal glaze is limited to 30 pieces.
