Nathalie Schreckenberg DECORATIVE OBJECTS

German-Brazillian designer Nathalie Schreckenberg creates quirky yet enchanting glassware inspired by nature’s organic forms. Before extending her practice into the world of glass homewares, Schrekenberg gained traction for her elegant jewelry crafted from recycled sterling silver. Schreckenberg’s background in fine art and sculpture informs her approach to sinuous vases and dishes. Handcrafted using highly resilient borosilicate glass, the Gil dish is constructed by deflating a blown glass bubble, while the Caê vase is formed using a hand-pleating technique. The Barcelona-based designer’s commitment to the beauty of imperfection is reflected in her eponymous label’s manual production processes: rippled finishings and crude constructions. Balancing out the label’s coarser aesthetic elements with subtle pastel colors, Schreckenberg reveals a trace of softness in her designs. Skillfully blown from robust glass and finished with a delicate touch, Nathalie Schreckenberg captivates with charming yet unexpected forms.
