Description

Ted Muehling created this iconic Volute Bowl for the porcelain manufacturers, which is presented by Monaco’s Highness Prince Albert II and Bavaria’s Highness Prince Leopold as the "Prix du Design" trophy awarded annually to the most beautiful yacht at the Monaco Yacht Show.

New York-based esteemed artist, Ted Muehling has been designing a variety of collections and objects for Porzellan Manufaktur Nymphenburg since 1999. The vases, lanterns, and candlesticks he has designed are largely inspired by and shaped after corals, leaves, branches, and, in this case, a shell.

Established in 1747, Nymphenburg has--through its relentless commitment to craftsmanship and its sustained collaboration with the premier designers and artists of every era--solidified its position as one of the world’s finest creators of porcelain, serving generations of royalty and having its porcelain immortalized in museums and design collections.

Ted Muehling

Ted Muehling was born in New Jersey in 1953. In 1975, he earned a degree in industrial design from the Pratt Institute in New York, where his mentors included designers Gerald Gulotta, Rowena Reed, and William Fogler. Since 1976, Muehling has been designing jewelry and decorative objects.

In 1990, Muehling opened his first shop on the edge of Soho in Manhattan, where he designs and produces multiples as well as one-of-a-kind pieces. Muehling has collaborated on designs with Porzellan-Manufaktur Nymphenburg, E. R. Butler & Co., Steuben Glass, J. & L. Lobmeyr and Wiener Silber Manufactur—the large majority of which are available at Les Ateliers Courbet.

Muehling’s honors include two Coty American Fashion Critics’ Awards in 1977 and in 1982. He was a finalist in the first annual National Design Award competition offered by the Smithsonian’s Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum in 1997, and he was the recipient of the Chrysler Design Award in 2000, and the Pratt Institute Alumni Achievement Award in 2012.
