Creation and Destruction-Appreciation of the Plaster Mold Casting of Ceramic Containers

Peter Marigold is an British designer, one day he received an invitation letter from the Germany Ceramic manufacturers Meissen who has more than 300 years history in German as a very ourstanding role. Meissen asked him to be their designer to do some great ceramics.
The British designer is clear that he hoped to be able to collaborate in the design of their products in the history of Meissen reservations. This project is not starting from scratch, creating a new series of products, designers chose existing plaster mold Meissen craftsmen employed, start from the model, design style is very unique cup and bowl series.
Marigold want to leave their mark on the basis of the original products of Meissen, so he had decided to make smooth mold surface scratches processing, giving a texture "noisy sense." He was such operations, casting products, has been doing deeply engraved in the mold. He kept repeating this process with deeper sculpting strokes gypsum scrape the inside of the mold are becoming deep scratches, each depth characterization, he will cast a product until exposed to scratches the edges of the mold, reached its practical limits.
