About Tree Story Condiments Set 調味瓶套裝

《樹之物語》係一套專為盛載常用香草同香料而設計嘅調味瓶套裝。呢套套裝包含六個玻璃容器,每一個都以樹冠嘅形態為造型,靈感源自世界各地唔同地區樹木形態嘅多樣性。玻璃頂蓋喺紐約市以人手吹製而成,木製底座則以人手車床加工製作。每個玻璃頂蓋同底座之間以軟木塞同黃銅棒連接,黃銅嘅重量增添咗整體嘅穩定性。每個頂蓋都可以拆卸,透過20毫米嘅開口將調味料倒出。

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.
