Whisky glasses and a whisky carafe in a set SCULPTURE, 3 pcs, Nachtmann

Product detailed description

Ripped from a raw piece of ice or rock, rough yet smooth, unfinished yet perfectly detailed. That's exactly what the Sculpture crystal whisky decanter glasses from the German glassworks Nachtmann are. Sculpture is more than just glassware, it is a sculptural work of art in a modern design.

The whisky decanter is a great choice for serving fine spirits. In the crystal bottle with stopper the drinks look absolutely irresistible! For the best enjoyment and to preserve all the flavours and aromas, only pour a reasonable amount of whisky into the decanter to be consumed over a period of days, weeks at most. This prevents the loss of valuable aromas that would be lost during the slow evaporation of the alcohol during long-term storage.

The Sculpture series impresses with the contrast of smooth glass with unfinished elements representing raw rock and its inner beauty. The complex geometry of the untreated surface, together with the perfection of the clear smooth surfaces, creates a rough yet refined appearance of the final products.

The original Sculpture collection was created in 2012 by the promising Turkish designer Ahmet Uslu as an outcome of the Nachtmann NEXTGEN design competition. This year's competition sought young talent in Stockholm in collaboration with Konstfakt, Sweden's leading university of art, craft and design.

Nachtmann NEXTGEN: competition and cooperation

Since 2008, prestigious design schools have been able to nominate their talented students for the Nachtmann NextGen competition, which seeks young up-and-coming designers worldwide. Independent product designer Stefanie Kubanek works with the Nachtmann team to create a new brief for each project. After introducing students to the practical side of glass production directly in the glassworks in Germany, an intensive phase of work on the design itself follows.

The winning design materializes from an idea into the final product: a design series produced under the Nachtmann brand.
