Studio Vit designs glass and china Vessels to be "as thin as possible"
North London-based Studio Vit has created a collection of handmade tabletop objects in crystal glass and bone china, which are designed to be as thin and delicate as the materials will allow.
Launched by MDR Gallery, the Vessels collection comprises three wine and water glasses and two carafes made with crystal glass, and two tea and coffee cups and a milk or water jug in bone china.
While each piece is unique and varies slightly in shape and thickness, each handblown crystal glass vessel has been made to be as thin as possible in a bid to push the material to its limits.
The bone china is also fine and delicate, likened to eggshells by the Swedish studio. This thinness of materials is an attempt to emphasise "a sense of closeness to the liquid" when drinking, in turn enhancing the experience.
"Studio Vit's designs are intended to create stillness and make space around which life can exist," said MDR Gallery. The studio describe their products as "making room for life, atoning for a loud world."
"In this way Vessels are more than functional objects; they give pause during the everyday tumult," it added.
Helena Jonasson and Veronica Dagnert from the London-based practice intend their products to "elevate small everyday rituals" such as drinking, while also creating a sense of "stillness" in busy day to day life.
The Vessels collection references the duo's Scandinavian roots in its minimalism, as well as Japanese...
