{"product_id":"al-138860","title":"Vanitas Medium Ring","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vanitas Medium Ring is meticulously crafted out of 800 silver and white porcelain with detailed carvings adorning the exterior of the ring. As a child, Thibault Hazelzet spent time studying the pages of his parents' 19th century book of cameos. This book inspired him to create castings that are still used and featured on the rings today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the porcelain shards, Hazelzet begins by molding and firing them at 1300°C.

The brutality of the treatment of materials and the finesse of the figures linked to simple shapes create a contemporary and classic effect simultaneously - something the artist calls a ‘delicate brutalism.’ Hazelzet focuses on extreme contrasts and creates modern pieces that remain universal and timeless.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduction lead time approximately 4 – 6 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carpenters Workshop Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51788995068168,"sku":"AL-138860","price":1322.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0881\/7741\/0312\/files\/6941df40f36fa7b2f1bf72f68771f6d8j.jpg?v=1755701610","url":"https:\/\/checkout.carpentersworkshopgallery.com\/products\/al-138860","provider":"Carpenters Workshop Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
