Description

Re-interpreting the Swiss craft of bronze bell casting.
Now in the hands of the third generation, Fonderie Brügger continues to perpetuate this tradition. Molten bronze is cast around a steel handle imbedded within the sand packed mould.
Whilst staying true to the technique and boundaries of the foundry we merge the subtil curves of the bronze vessel with off-cuts of industrial steel profiles.
These vessels can be laid in different directions, suggesting different typologies of objects such as a recipient, sculptural artefact or abstraction of a bell.
Delivered with a small hammer which combines the bronze from the pouring sprue and Ponpon, traditionally ornamenting the leather strap.

These objects are simply oiled, staying true the traditional method of Fonderie Brügger, and thus will take patina over time.

About GEORG FOSTER Visit Showroom →

Georg Foster's work is predominantly process driven. Be it in the details or in the overall construction outcome is the direct response to the production methods, be it cutting, carving, burning, casting or projecting. His work is at the interface of industrial design, material research and traditional craftsmanship.He strives for his work to be accessible and not superficial. The themes of reuse and hyper local production, as he likes to call it, run through all his projects. These principles often serve as the initial inspiration and guideline in his creative process.His passion for materials was shaped by his childhood in Rwanda, Cameroon, Turkey and Switzerland, where he spent a lot of time outdoors in search of adventure. From an early age, he experimented with collected materials, exploring new paths far off the beaten track. The local crafts and materials he encountered left a deep mark and still inspire his work today.Thanks to collaboration, it is a privilege for him to endlessly learn from renowned brands such as Vitra, Marsotto Edizioni, l'Epée, Aesop and Hérmes as well as experienced craftspeople such as Fonderie Brügger or Klötzli Messerschmied.
