Spirit

As one of the first collections by designer Kateřina Handlová in her position as art director of Rückl, the SPIRIT collection is a confident demonstration of the possibilities of working with traditional cut crystal in a modern way, but with reference to its historical heritage. The collection reflects her interest in exploring her own visual language within the Rückl brand, where she builds on previous collections, as well as in cut glass technique and technology, which has remained virtually unchanged over the last few centuries. She focuses on haptics, the contrast between matte and polished surfaces and the fragility and strength of glass.

The collection consists of three hand-blown and cut glass decanter sets, GENTLE, CONFIDENT and PURE. The GENTLE and CONFIDENT decanters are designed for any alcoholic beverage and their key feature is the interchangeable stoppers. The sets include tumbler, highball and shotglass glasses, which can be purchased separately, as can the glass-cut corks. The PURE water set includes glasses and a carafe, completed by a stopper reminiscent of a precious droplet that could at any moment just merge forever in the refreshing liquid held beneath it.
