The Making Of Porcelain Vase
This is a short documentary about making a vase. It shows the whole developing process from the initial sketch, prototyping to the final product. Porcelain Vase is designed by Thomas Feichtner and produced by the tradition-steeped Viennese manufactory Wiener Porzellanmanufaktur Augarten.
Vases have always been both a central element of product design and something of a cultural-historical reflection. No Austrian producer is more closely linked to the history of the vase than Augarten. As the world’s second-oldest porcelain manufactory, Augarten has continued with the hand-production of vases to this very day.
Porcelain Vase is a formally convincing and almost technical-seeming cone. Divided by three legs, the constructive interplay between the basic body’s consistency and the vase’s overall formal freedom gives rise to a highly distinct aura.
