About Etern Decanter

Ang Etern ay isang decanter na gawa sa salamin na dinisenyo para sa paghahain ng alak sa hapag-kainan. Ang hugis ng Etern ay hango sa cross-section ng panahon, at ang kurbadong balangkas ay nagpapakita ng bawat sandali bilang sarili nitong bahagi ng kawalang-hanggan. Ginamit ang salamin dahil sa transparent na katangian nito, na nagpapakita ng kulay ng alak at magaan na anyo ng lalagyan habang isinasalin ang inumin. Habang ibinubuhos ang alak, dumadaloy ang hangin sa likido at nag-aaerate nito. Ang Etern ay hinuhugis sa pamamagitan ng glass blowing, at binuo ang isang customized na proseso upang tumugma sa disenyo. Ang piyesang ito ay nilayon bilang isang tahimik na pahayag para sa hapag-kainan.

Scholarly inspirations from philosophy, astronomy, and literature on impermanence have been researched for Etern. A graceful and celebrating combination of decanting.
Inspiration: Each flower that grows and withered away, is eternal in its own fragment of time. The Etern decanter is inspired by the fragment of time.
