Jewelry artist Wiebke Meurer takes inspiration from historical European works of silver, gold, and porcelain to create superb delicately ornate sculptural tableware made of gold and silver filigree.
I’m fascinated by historical European works of silver, gold and porcelain,” says Meurer. “I explore traditional ways to design objects, not to stick to tradition but because I use tradition as my starting point for my creative strategies. I’m not concerned about the restoration of the broken object: I want to deconstruct it, to reach the heart of its integrity and reinvent it, both formally and functionally.
