Finally!

So I finished my BA rocking chair!

Small cracks

Small cracks make me feel quite uncomfortable because they either grow or might grow bigger.

Orrefors does it

Orrefors + Karl Lagerfeld. Not sure what to think of this. Desperate maybe. Only simple black and white... yeah right. And the coasters are pretty much something unbelievable.

See Karl here.

Along the way

A rocking chair on my mind.

Taito

The making of a new kiln casting glass mould for my BA project. The mould was complete on the name day of Taito.

Another journey with glass: a baseball bat and a ball

I produced a Finnish baseball bat and three balls in glass. I took these objects to a field and hit one ball with the bat. After two missed attempts I hit the ball. Both the bat and the ball broke into pieces. Two balls remain unbroken. (2011)

A stackable crockery for caffeine

Even though these are usable objects, the set is a comment on the efficiency expectations on the people living in our society. The small set is to be given for a small child as a name giving present and it has separate parts for storing liquid caffeine (coffee) and solid caffeine, and the whole set can be carried with as the owner moves around with his busy timetable.

A stackable set of dishes: a ceramic cup (height 3.5cm, diam. 6.5cm, porcelain, transparent glaze inside), mould blown clear glass cup (height 3cm, diam. 6cm, lip cut and polished) and a clear hot-cast glass lid (height 1cm, diam. 6cm). The set includes also a wooden container for the crockery (height 12cm, diam. 9cm) and a card (describing the use of the set) attached on the container.
