Organic Shaped Table Glass

Szkło /shkwo/ means glass in Polish. Szkło are functional glass sculptures and collectible design objects, hand-blown by Aleksandra Zawistowska with a team of craftsmen. It is a celebration of materials and the glassblowing process, with no two pieces alike. Szkło Studio is a combination of an imaginary approach, years of craftsmanship experience and an admiration for the raw material, stems from challenging the conventional glassblowing process, turning it into a playful experiment instead. As no traditional moulds are used in the process, the sculptures assume spontaneous forms, often challenging the notion of beauty. The glassblowing process becomes as important as the final form itself. The mission of Szkło Studio is to push the boundaries of functionality and material characteristics, turning the simple act of eating and drinking into an experience. It celebrates uniqueness and diversity. It is an invitation to limit our possessions and enjoy the quality of individual objects instead. Aleksandra Zawistowska is an artist and designer. Having studied in Warsaw, Lisbon and Amsterdam, she holds Master degrees in both, Art and Architec- ture. She established Szklo Studio during her studies at Sandberg Instituut.
