The vases are part of the Explorer collection, a comprehensive series of rounded and colorful furniture and home accessories inspired by Hayon's childhood memories. The focus is clearly on high-quality materials, craftsmanship and durability - the aspects of sustainability - as well as design.
Materials and processing
The production of the Explorer vases by Jaime Hayon for BD Barcelona is an elaborate process that requires craftsmanship and precision. The vases are made of glazed ceramic in different colors. The main components are kaolin, feldspar and quartz, which are processed into a fine mass. The production of the Vasen requires great craftsmanship, as they consist of several rounded ceramic pieces that are joined together to create the characteristic rounded and playful shapes of the vases . After molding, the vases are dried. The first firing: this hardens the vases, removes moisture from the material and makes the vases stable. After the first firing, the vases are glazed. This not only gives them a shine, but also seals the surface and makes them resistant to dirt. The second firing fixes the glaze and hardens the material further.
