Puiforcat presents a collection created by Donald Judd in 1989, featuring bowls, plates and cups in sterling silver
The creative legacy of Donald Judd is back in the contemporary spotlight once more with a never-before-seen dinner service, designed by the American artist, finally seeing the light of day. Expertly crafted by the French silversmith Puiforcat, the eight-piece collection beautifully exemplifies Judd’s artistic philosophy.
‘Judd Foundation has a long-standing relationship with Hermès; as a heritage company, we have shared values of material standards and craftsmanship. This project was the result of conversations on the possibilities of working with the artistry employed by the experts within Puiforcat, and there was an opportunity to complete Don’s intentions and realise these in silver,’ says Flavin Judd.
Produced in close dialogue with Puiforcat’s artistic directors Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry, Judd’s original designs have been interpreted and completed in this new material. The results achieve the precise 90 degree angles specified in the artist’s concept sketches and technical drawings that lay dormant in the Judd Foundation’s archives in Marfa, Texas.
The final result is a collection of dinner, bread, salad, soup and dessert places, and a serving bowl and cups available in a range of dimensions to form a complete table setting. Each piece is numbered, and stamped with an artist's mark, Puiforcat’s emblematic diamond-shaped logo containing founder Emile Puiforcat’s EP initials.
