About the Item
13˚ 60˚ 104˚
Borosilicate.
25 cm in height and 21 cm in diameter.
Winner of a RedDot Design Award.
Open edition.
Mouth-blown and manually produced in Slovenia without the use of moulds. Decanters are made in 20-piece batches, no more frequently than annually. Every item is individually hand-engraved in Mayfair, London and includes a Certificate of Provenance giving its unique production number (please provide the owner's name to appear on the certificate). Decanters are shipped in a wooden wine box and are surrounded with wood shavings for protection.
Why the 13° 60° 104°? The three alternative positions for the decanter.
According to some, the decanter started the evening sober at 13 degrees. At sixty degrees, the decanter was a touch tipsy. By nightfall, it had reached an inebriated 104 degrees.
Published in the Independent, Nowness, Financial Times How to Spend It, Sunday Times Style Magazine and Damn magazine.
A lamp worker uses a lathe to free blow borosilicate items using the same techniques used to make scientific laboratory glassware (chemistry apparatus).
Compared to other types of glass, borosilicate glass is more resistant to heat shock. The term 'hard glass' refers to borosilicate, which melts at a temperature of around 1650 degrees Celsius.

Rokos
Playful, handmade home décor with unexpected behaviours . . . The London-based studio makes art that becomes alive when used, expressing their personalities and aestheticising their own functions. Established by designer and artist Jim Rokos, the company specialises in glass work and creates a variety of vases, candleholders, and decanters. They can adopt the demeanour of the housed object (Gauge flower vase), mimic the actions of drinkers (13° 60° 104° decanter), or politely indicate to lingering dinner guests when it's time for them to get home (≲ 231 MIN candleholder). ROKOS crafts objects that lie at the nexus of industry and craft; each is meticulously executed throughout the entire process, from design to manufacturing. The Gauge vase won the 2017 German Design Award for Excellent Product Design, while the 13° 60° 104° decanter took home the Reddot Design Award. The German Design Awards granted a special mention to the ≲ 231 MIN.
The Times Luxx, the Financial Times How to Spend It, Wired, the Sunday Times Style, Monocle, and Icon have all featured works. ARTIST
Jim Rokos began his career as a model-maker in the motion picture and television industries, working on projects like Band of Brothers, Tomb Raider, Victoria & Albert, and Muppet Treasure Island. In 2006, he earned a master's degree in industrial design. Several of his pieces are held by the university in the CSM Museum & Study Collection.

Included: brush, 7 X 6" long church candles, 4 X lighting tightens, wooden gift box. German Design Award 2021 - special mention. The timepiece lets the user adjust the amount of water that goes into the holder to determine when the flame will go out. As the candle reduces its base rises upwards to where a restriction in the glass ends, and the candle falls over onto its side, extinguishing itself in the water. We are taught by the Bauhaus that "less is more." Here, for more burn time, add less water. The candleholder is shaped from the highest quality Italian borosilicate glass. They are individually mouth-blown and formed by a highly skilled craftsman on a lathe using...Category
