Gustav Klimt 1862 - 1918 

Vase / Porcelain  height 45 cm Limited Edition

The Kiss is considered to be Gustav Klimt’s most significant work of art – a world-renowned icon of love. It was created in the years 1907-1908, a time described as Klimt’s golden period. The distinct use of golden colors is probably one of the reasons for the unchanging popularity of this motif throughout the years. 

Noble materials, highest quality and complete handcraftsmanship are the hallmarks of the Artis Orbis collection: Fine porcelain and bone china - The “White Gold” is more than simply a mixture of kaolin, feldspar and quartz. It is fragile, valuable, useful and decorative. A higher portion of bone ash makes “bone china” especially subtle and translucent.

Complex print technique - Ceramic colours are used for our print decoration, created in small quantities with traditional techniques. Often, 18 and more colours are required to closely reproduce the true-to-original atmosphere of the work of art. After application by hand they are fired at temperatures of up to 800° centigrade. Genuine gold decor - up to 18 % pure gold additionally refines our decors and makes each piece a small treasure.
