KOR-ALM WINE FOUNTAIN

​

During a residency in Schloss Hollenegg, Austria, Christian+Jade dived into the local history of forest glass, also known as Waldglas, which was produced using two raw materials that was abundant in the area - quartz sand from the land and wood ash from the trees. 

​

Inspired by the richness of the lands, Christian+Jade have transformed unused sand from developing the Kor-Alm railway tunnel on Schloss Hollenegg’s ground, into a glass with a unique deep green colour resulting from the area’s mineral composition. Using what they call “Kor-Alm” glass, an extravagant Wine Fountain that simultaneously distributes wine into six glasses was created for the castle's private wine production.  A toast from the grounds of Schloss Hollenegg!
