Archiv Flowerpot Shape Vase from Pamono x KPM, 2018

About This Piece

Exceptional Contemporary Design

The Flowerpot Shape Vase from the Pamono x KPM Archiv Collection was produced in 2018.

Pamono has partnered with venerable Berlin-based ceramics manufactory KPM to create a limited-edition collection drawn from the KPM archives. The Flowerpot Shape Vase was originally created by German sculptor, painter, and designer Trude Petri in 1947, during the many years she designed for KPM. The wavy, biomorphic surface pattern—in black, lilac, sky blue, 24-carat gold—harkens back to the golden age of modernist graphic design.

This design has not been produced by KPM since the last century and is available now exclusively through Pamono in an edition of five. Each piece is hand-painted at the KPM manufactory in Berlin.

About the Maker

KPM

The Royal Porcelain Factory in Berlin (Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin in German)—abbreviated as KPM and also known as the Royal Porcelain Manufactory Berlin—was founded in 1763 by King Frederick II of Prussia, known as Frederick the Great. The KPM logo is a cobalt blue sceptre, which is stamped on every piece. All painted pieces produced by KPM are signed by the painter. Each piece is handmade and therefore unique. KPM is still producing in Berlin today.

Throughout its long history, KPM has regularly commissioned outstanding artists and designers to create porcelain pieces collections. In the 19th century, these included Karl Friedrich Schinkel, Christian Daniel Rauch, and Johann Gottfried Schadow. In the 20th century, Gerhard Marcks, Trude Petri, Marguerite Friedlaender, Wolf Karnagel, and Enzo Mari pioneered designs for the manufactory. Services such as the neoclassical Kurland, the New Objectivity-style Urbino, and the Bauhaus-style Arkadia remain immensely popular.
