Bachner Vessels is a contemporary practice studio exploring the vessel in all its semantic interpretations
The debut installation at Lotto, Berlin underscores an ongoing investigation into the possibilities of beeswax and porcelain. Each form is modelled in beeswax, slip-cast in plaster, and fired at high temperatures. Through this process, recurring patterns, gestures, and sequences evolve into distinct series of collectible pieces. What emerges is a dedication to colour, materiality, structure, and processes that blend the unusual with the everyday.

Form Alphabet creates a structured field of iterated forms in which language unfolds through a playful, concise approach. Inspired by pictograms and the communicative power of visual symbols, the objects exist first and foremost as sculptures and are rooted in explorations of form, colour, and semantic play. When filled with water to add a flower, the object transforms into a vase.
Hollow forms with holes to possibly hold flowers Limited edition of ten
Each piece is modelled in beeswax, slip-cast in plaster, shaped from porcelain, and fired at high temperatures, where fluid material turns into solid, enduring matter. The result of this process is a collection of ten limited-edition pieces in varying colours. Every object comes with a stamped and signed certificate of authenticity including its edition number.

Each Drip piece has a distinctive drip-shaped base that captures the transition from liquid to solid, combining fluidity with durability. Designed to elevate daily moments, these vessels bring a touch of sensory delight to dining.
The mother moulds are made from beeswax blanks that are repeatedly dipped into hot wax until droplets form naturally on the underside.These droplets, “frozen” into place, now function as stands. Each wax model holds a distinct, fingerprint-like individuality, where the technique is visibly and tangibly embedded into its form.

Each form begins as a small hand-drawn sketch before being modelled in beeswax, then converted into a negative plaster mould. Limoges porcelain is then poured into the mould. The result of this serial production process is a collection of slender, sharply defined vessels.
Form Alphabet creates a structured field of serialised shapes in which language unfolds through a playful, concise approach. Inspired by pictograms and the communicative power of visual symbols, the forms exist as a sculpture first and foremost and are rooted in explorations of three-dimensionality, colour and semantic play.
