Product detailed description
The Dunes glassware set draws inspiration from the raw beauty of sand dunes and their naturally recurring forms. The dune-like relief is shaped on the inner surface, while the outer silhouette remains precise and minimal.
When filled with liquid, the inner relief visually disappears, leaving only the clean external outline visible. This subtle transformation creates a refined interplay of light, material and form.
The DUNES collection was created in collaboration with glass designer Tomáš Kučera, a student of glass design at UMPRUM and Czech Design Week 2021 discovery. The collection is produced by Prague-based studio Monotropa, known for its emphasis on craftsmanship and thoughtful design.
