Join us on a voyage of discovery, and be ready to ignite your curiosity as we are redefining the boundaries of what we call craft today.
This year, we will spread our wings and land in the unique & eclectic hall 8, stand G-61. It’s craftsmanship that sets the tone here with worldly, one-of-a-kind statement pieces.
For the first time in history, M&O will open the doors of its very own Hospitality LAB—and we are proud to be part of this experience in Hall 6, J-67, where we will express our expertise in the contract market.
Join us on a voyage of discovery and be ready to ignite your curiosity as we are redefining the boundaries of what we call craft today. Each member of our Family of Things is handmade in close collaboration with the artisans we’ve met on our journeys. Discover the hand of the master in each of our latest designs.
This is the POLSPOTTEN FALL23 collection.
Stay tuned, as we reveal our FALL23 collection at Maison&Objet.
Following in the footsteps of the bestselling Coral, Shanghai and Hongkong vases by Norman Trapman, a sturdy bunch of colorful pieces is now entering the stage. Playful to the max, the bubbly vases of the Relief Series aim to cause a stir wherever they go — and they've come a long way already.
The hand of their master has shaped each of their little bumps by hand-blowing their entire body into a wooden mold. Since each has its own unique form and color, these characters naturally participate in the fight for the right to be different. Just let them show off their beautiful diversity in all the places they will inhabit.
“The distinctive relief shape to which these vases owe their name, is inspired by brutalism in architecture, especially through the work of Fritz Wotruba, a late 20-century Austrian sculptor known for dissolving figurative components in favor of geometrical abstraction.”
– Norman Trapman, Dutch designer
Welcome back to the future, where a series of time travelers rule the dinner table. Way ahead of their time, these espresso cups, mugs, bowls, and various sizes of plates show us how to blend ancient handcrafting techniques with the latest state-of-the-art technologies.
Made in collaboration with Kranen/Gille – a Dutch design studio that shapes the future by looking at the past – this series is a nod to the cyber world. Charmed by early 8-bit abstraction such as Nintendo, SEGA, and Atari, each piece is modeled after the masters’ vision of the new, digitalized world. This Digi Series is executed in a futuristic pink and yellow.
“The faceted look refers both to low-res imagery and craft-cut crystal. A new-worldly paradox that is highlighted by a polygon of circa 100 hand-painted lines. Thanks to POLSPOTTEN's access to innovative production possibilities, each item of the Digi Series has become a true conversation piece.”
– Johannes Gille, designer & craftsman Kranen/Gille
