The Design

About Tree Story Condiments Set Geurmiddelstel

Book Text: Tree Story is 'n geurmiddelstel wat ontwerp is om algemeen gebruikte kruie en speserye te hou. Die stel bevat ses glasbehouers, en elkeen is gevorm na die kroon van 'n boom. Die vorms is geïnspireer deur die diversiteit van boomvorms wat in verskillende streke van die wêreld voorkom. Die glasdeksels word met die hand geblaas in New York Stad, en die houtbasisse word met die hand op 'n draaibank gedraai. 'n Kurk en 'n koperstaaf verbind elke glasdeksel aan sy basis, en die gewig van die koper verleen bykomende stabiliteit. Elke deksel kan verwyder word om geurmiddels deur 'n 20 mm opening vry te stel.

Production Technology: The glass tops are hand-blown by glass blowers in New York City. The wood bases are hand-turned with lathe and assembled by artisans in New York City.

High quality molds are created and used for hand-blown glass tops for consistent and flawless shapes. The glass then goes through rigorous quality control process to remove defects with small bubbles and streaks.

The wood bases are hand-turned and assembled with cork and 100% brass rod to hold up the glass top. Metal brass not only connects the cork to the wood but the weight of it aids in stability so as to not topple over.
Inspiration: Strolling through the woods as summer fades into fall absorbing the variety of scents, colors, shapes, and watching the leaves gently falling provided inspiration to the design.
Project Duration: Designed in 2018 in New York City and in production 2023 in New York City
Operation Flow: The glass top is held and connected to the wood base by a cork and brass rod. The glass top can be removed from the wood base to allow condiments to gently fall on your tray from the 20mm diameter opening and then put back on once used.
