Material
Tinware
Formally inspired by the souvenir shops where one can buy kitschy Pewter items of famous buildings/people/cities.
Informally inspired by; drinking German beer, stashing tobacco, or have your favorite centre piece proudly displayed in your best room. A cheeky twist on low-end souvenirs in a self inflicted high-end design culture.

Tin ware
Thomas Eyck presents “Tin ware” by Studio Job
Thomas Eyck introduces “Tin ware”, a new collection designed by Studio Job. It includes five different objects, based on the contemporary-archaic handwriting of the designers in perfect harmony with the traditional technique of casting pewter. The greyish coloured material gives form to a candle holder, dish, basket, jar and vase. Together with the decoration of mice and elephants in relief these objects reflect a fresh and innovated approach to a very old technique. The objects will be limited to 150 each.
Thomas Eyck started his own company beginning of 2007. He is a publisher and distributor of characteristic and exclusive design products. In his view the union of design and material, and a careful process of product development are very important. Materials and technique will be chosen with the utmost care, and the company will only cooperate with the best craftsmen and producers. In this way limited series of products in different materials will be created.
