Crystal Egg Cup

Balance is a key theme for Alexander Kirkeby, whose mouth-blown creations step away from clean, perfectly formed lines to celebrate something more fluid and off-kilter. This crystal egg cup highlights his approach – note how it’s been expertly moulded to appear as if the cup is slowly melting and being swallowed up by the bottom-heavy base. It’ll certainly spark up conversation over the breakfast table. Please note, due to the unique and handcrafted nature of each piece, the shape and characteristics may vary.

Based in Aarhus, Denmark, Alexander Kirkeby specialises in mouth-blown glassware that’s unique, creative and functional. Rather than finding inspiration in clean lines, he instead strives to develop a more contorted aesthetic – one that defies expectations and brings character to homes across the globe. As a result, his creations have an off-kilter way about them that’ll draw you in and implore you to analyse each one from every possible angle.
