Dual editions
The Matisse Stacking Vessels are small treasures of curvy glass with a wooden crown.
The collection was originally designed for the Tate Museum in London and inspired by the colour palette of the French painter. Their subtle presence makes them spontaneous design collectibles.
A Matisse Vessel can be taken apart to form a small glass vase and a small wooden container.
Designed and prototyped in 2014

Dimensions are approximate, due to the handmade nature of the materials.
The materials come to our warehouse in Germany where they are fitted and assembled.
Mould
Our Matisse collection is blown into a wooden mould in Czechia. The moulds are kept wet, so that the hot glass creates a fine layer of fumes within the mould, ensuring the glossy smooth surface on the glass
Mould blowing
For mould blowing a minimum of two people are required. One to gather and blow the glass and another to open and close the mould.
cooling
Once the piece comes out of the mould, it is picked up with a fork and put into a cooling oven.
