Our large, earthy Stacking Vessels.
Beautifully tactile, the contrast between the soft wood, the porous ceramic and the hard translucent glass is emphasised through the scale of these pieces.
Each of our Transformed Stacking Vessels disassembled into a large glass bowl, a large ceramic bowl and a wood container.
Designed and prototyped in 2013

The materials come to our warehouse in Germany where they are fitted and assembled.
Wheel Throwing
Ball of clay
It all starts with a ball of clay. Kneaded to be malleable and perfectly smooth, the clay is worked until it has the perfect consistency and all air bubbles are pushed out.
Throwing on a wheel
The ball of clay is then centred on a throwing wheel, a horizontal plate which can spin. Once the clay is centred, the wheel is put to motion and the hands of the potter start pulling up and down to create the desired shape.
Finishing
The finesse on our pieces is working to accurate and consistent scale, and creating a perfectly smooth rim for the glass to be located on.
