wOrk Spoon necklaces: spoons are cross-cultural
A spoon is a universal utensil across cultures. And for that reason also a perfect theme for a necklace in the cooperation between designers Olav Slingerland and Zhu Xiaojie. The inspiration from nature can be seen in the color layers of the Spoon rings that have a strong resemblance to the growth rings of a tree. Unique necklaces in six different colour schemes – a light grey spoon with a different colored bowls and color rings around the bowl. The wOrk Spoon pendants come with a leather necklace (cm) and in a matching box.
wOrk – where east meets west
At the invitation of designer Zhu Xiaojie (CN), Olav Slingerland (NL) left in 2015 to China to work together in Xiaojie's ceramics studio. Their joint research into the language of clay, in which they shared their love for the material, nature, and the essence of good design shared, culminated in a cultural cross-pollination, which forms the basis of the brand wOrk and which is expressed in a distinctive design style. The pure and honest material in a bright and contemporary design, that is at the heart of wOrk.
wOrk requires craftmanship
All wOrk Spoon necklaces are hand-made by craftsmen. Each object is established by cooperation of designer and maker, an absolute requirement if you are working with layers of colored porcelain and if you are committed to the quality of wOrk. Porcelain clay requires a precise and intensive way of working, which stands or falls with good workmanship. The layers of colored porcelain show clearly visible how the products are made
Dutch designer Olav Slingerland
Olav Slingerland studied at the Design Academy Eindhoven, where he experienced his introduction to the ceramic process. During his education, he became more and more excited about the casting of clay.
