The cake stand Tratt is hand-cast in a graphite mould at Reijmyre Glasbruk. With the point of departure in the concept of “exotic” and with Estrid Ericson’s many journeys in mind, the designer Benjamin Curtis has made a reinterpretation of the classic cake stand. Originally from England, Curtis found the Swedish countryside exotic when he first moved to Sweden. He set out from a chanterelle and chose to see it as a foreign object rather than a mushroom.
Benjamin Curtis graduated from Beckmans College of Design in June 2016 and, as one of Svenskt Tenn’s two glass grant holders, he was given the opportunity to develop the cake stand at Reijmyre.
