Product Details

A series of handicraft techniques is used to form this beautiful vase. The design gets life in a German studio. There it is modelled in an original plaster form, then blown mouth with quality glass. Hand blown and hand finished, cut and polished glass vase. Due to handmade production, the colour of the item may vary slightly. After a metal form has been prepared in several different stages, the process of blowing the glass can begin. At the start, each worker uses a blow pipe to collect a certain amount of glass – depending on the size of the object – out of the kiln. Further preparatory steps follow before the glass blower blows the hot substance into the metal form. Due to the sophisticated and characteristic forms that are the GUAXS trademark, this task can only be performed by qualified craftsmen. When the work piece has gradually cooled down after a few days, the different phases of cutting and polishing ensue. In several complex and meticulous steps the glass surface is worked on and finished by hand. Thus the object receives its individual structure and its distinctive, unique GUAXS character. Every single form is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship.
