NymphenburgDescription
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.
