CRACKLE BOWL, Blue

Designed by Åsa Jungnelius in 2020 

The Crackle series celebrates cracks, beautifully preserved in glass and is created utilising an old handcraft technique in which the shape is carved in clay by hand, and the crackled surface is formed when the hot glass is dipped in ice-cold water. 

Designer Åsa Jungnelius says of the process: ¿I have revealed the expressive shape of the clay. The convergence of hot glass and cold water creates a crackled finish. I wanted to create a surface reminiscent of frozen, crusted ice. A crunchy, crackling feel. The technique is old, but I use it in my own personal way".

The crackled surface will catch the light from the crack of dawn until sunset, telling the story of fire, earth and water.
