Faces, a hommage to femninility

Michael Sieger’s ‘Objects to a muse’ renders a very personal homage to femininity. It is dedicated to his wife who has over the years supported him in his creative work as his muse. He wanted to express his gratitude to her with an in part limited collection of valuable objects. Opulent, sensual, charming – and with a hint of irony. Vases with a distinctly feminine form, curvaceous torsos, candleholders and vessels with stylised women’s faces – all by SIEGER by FÜRSTENBERG. The sensuality of the shapes may also be understood as a tongue-in-cheek request to the beholder to also make use of his or her sense of touch. Could there be a better declaration of love?

The champagne cooler presents femininity through artistically crafted porcelain. Three facial reliefs blend seamlessly into one other; eyes, nose and mouth have been modelled on classical proportions. Faces is ideal for presenting sumptuous beverages and, together with the Sip of Gold champagne goblet, creates an altogether harmonious image. Used as a vase, lush flowers liberate the imagination, thus giving rise to thoughts of lavishly coiffed hair.

Sieger by Fürstenberg ‘Objects to a muse’ Faces champagne cooler is available in glossy white, not just with a 99% platinum or 24k gold, but now also with a satin-matt  powdery finish surface, with the feel of cashmere (Click photo to enlarge).

Anyone who drinks from this mug will delight anyone who lays eyes on them. On two of its sides is the filigree form of a woman’s face with classic features. Its proportions, such as the softly contoured mouth, are in the form of a precise relief. The mug’s base fits precisely on the saucers of the MY CHINA! tableware range, ensuring practicality.

To the stars

Most of my regular readers know: I love black and white. And yes! I found my new China!! Timeless and classic! That would fit perfect with my black original Josef Hoffmann chairs and Giorgetti table… Minimalist and nonetheless opulent, made of the finest porcelain, and 24-carat gold applied by hand, with the beautiful name Ca’ d’Oro. Perfect for me!!

For someone who lives alone, I have a lot of different, beautiful Bernardaud, Herend, Cartier, Limoges, Hammersley Tiffany and Wedgwood porcelain. But drinking my Lapsang tea in the finest porcelain, with minimum thickness, with burnished gold refines pure black and white contrasts. must tast good! The geometric interplay gives rise to classic stripes, squares, circles and other architectonic patterns.

Clarity and precision meet sensuality and poetry, the new Luna collection from SIEGER by FÜRSTENBERG is sculptural in nature. Like a space capsule travelling towards the moon and stars, the vases feature the same harmonious contours to recreate the object-like character of these spacecraft.

Sensual and sculptural

Fascinated by space discovery, Michael Sieger infused the vases with their individual character. One thing that makes them so special is their tapering conical form; available in three sizes, they can therefore showcase both smaller and more lavish floral bouquets. They are available either in pure white or in a black-and-white decor that brings together both vertical and horizontal stripes, refined with 24-carat burnished gold.

Luna is available in different diameters and the following heights: 203mm, 215mm and 325mm.

These lines are completely handmade by Fürstenberg that shares the Sieger family’s high standards of quality and design. Handmade in Germany, dishwasher safe, but not suitable for the microwave. I Always prefer handwash for myself…
