vases

A unique vase by Plody Erlanu. The vase is made of fine earthenware cast in a plaster mold with a crystalline glaze. Traditional procedures are combined with delicate shapes. Crystalline glaze occurs as a "defect" during firing. The zinc crystal is cultivated on the surface of the earthenware at specific temperatures. The zinc formations are then allowed to bloom into various shapes and colours. All glazes are prepared and mixed from crushed minerals and metals according to traditional recipes.

A series of luxury diffusers/vases with a characteristic wavy shape. The diffusers are hand blown into a wooden mold from luxurious alexandrite or aquamarine glass. Each vase is handmade, mouth-blown into a wooden mold using czech crystal glass. Hand-cut and polished to the highest gloss. Coloured rubies are added to the hot glass to allow a smooth colour transition. The exact colour and its distribution over the surface is unique for each vase. Each piece is blown separately and its final form is always different.

The concept of the collection of vases is to find a natural balance in glasswork between free sculpture and meaningful design with a focus on the author's perception and unique handwriting. Vases materialize the physical-biological phenomenon of FUSION – connection and division of cells, expansion and sublimation of liquids. This phenomenon is subsequently transformed architecturally – by a sculptural approach to the material of glass with the added utilitarian function of vase. Each piece is hand-blown by Czech masters, coloured with ruby and then thoroughly polished. With this form of production, there might be subtle flaws in the form of internal bubbles which do not threaten the function and only increase the authenticity of the individual artifacts.

All vases were made in several colours in the Moravian glassworks Cerva Bohemia.
