About Infinity Vessel Draagbare Kunskroon

Infinity Vessel is 'n glaskroon wat as draagbare kuns geskep is. Elke kroon word op maat gemaak, sodat dit slegs op die kop van een draer pas. 'n 3D-skandering lê die presiese vorm van die kop vas, en die kroon word dan met tradisionele metodes uit mondgeblaasde glas gevorm. Elke stuk dra sy eie kenmerke. Die gemiddelde grootte is 25 x 25 x 25 cm. Glas is gekies vir sy breekbaarheid en sy sterkte, en vir die manier waarop lig deur die materiaal beweeg. Die kroon weerspieël die individualiteit van die persoon wat dit dra.
