Stack

with Paul Smith

Stack is a series of unique, conceptually complex vases designed with Paul Smith  that form part of the Icon Collection.

Each piece in the Stack Collection is unique making each Stack a work of art.

Stack is a special series of vessels – appearing as a stack of plates, yet functioning as a vase, with each ‘plate’ hand glazed in colours inspired by Paul Smith’s iconic stripes.

To produce Stack requires a complex process from making each individual stacking element of fine bone china, through to the highly skilled colour matching and application.

On making each plate, after the first kiln (1250 C), they are then glazed and fired again (1060 C). They are water jet cut to provide the vase cavity, hand glazed in each one of the 40 colours of multi stripe and then fired again.

The elements are then put back in the stack and placed in the kiln for the third time and fired again, which allows the glaze to fuse together the elements to create the finished Stack. Finally a hand painted burnished gold piece completes Stack.

The decision to collaborate with 1882 Ltd. was a very instinctive one. They are a highly experienced, fifth generation family business who know their field very well.
