Did you Know?

Claus Josef Riedel was one of the most influential glass designers of the 20th century, best known for revolutionising wine glass design with his belief that the shape of a glass profoundly affects the taste of wine. His work for Rosenthal Studio Line in the 1980s and 1990s brought the same philosophy of form-follows-function to decorative art glass — producing sculptural pieces like the "Drunken Bottle" that blur the line between functional vessel and pure sculpture. Rosenthal Studio Line, founded in 1961, was Rosenthal's premium design division, collaborating with leading international artists and designers to produce limited-edition collectible pieces.
