The Product
The figures draped around this series of glasses from Esther Derkx appear to be floating in midair thanks to the artist’s innovative screen-printing techniques. Divers, dancers, and other retro-styled athletes sweep across champagne flutes, wine glasses, and other new stemware from Royal Leerdam. Each piece has been carefully printed to seamlessly curve around the form of the glass, and each athlete and vessel have been matched for their compatible personalities. Not dishwasher safe.
The Designer & Manufacturer
Dutch product designer Esther Derkx takes pleasure in interfering with the lives of existing objects. Recognizing the potential in screen-printing, Derkx has tested the boundaries of the process by screen-printing onto everything from champagne flutes to bathroom sinks. After spending seven years as a screen-printer, Derkx finally became an independent designer in 2000 and has since built a career that artfully combines various aspects of her backgrounds in antique furniture restoration, ceramics, and screen-printing. She lives and works in Utrecht in the Netherlands.
