Collection of bronze bells

The collection of bronze bells was created as a diploma thesis in collaboration with the artistic litter Jan Šeda. The aim of the project was not only to create a collection intended for reception areas, but also to popularize this traditional craft method of production. The set includes a reception bell, a bell with a handle, a bell on the console and a small bell. The inspiration for the design of the collection was the term RIB, which is used in the bell making craft to denote the cut of a bell. The castings of the bells are made of bronze, complemented by wooden and steel components.
