With over 700,000 models and casts, Meissen has the largest and oldest mould archive in the world.

It is also known for its winter season collections. New items or old re-visited ones are launched every year and are presented at the Maison & Objet, Paris, and at Ambiente.
Launched in 2014, with a mission to design and create beautiful collections of lead-free crystal glass objects, Istanbul-based global design brand Nude is the creator of contemporary glassware for modern living. With its ethos ‘simple is beautiful’, Nude looks at life through the lens of simplicity; de-cluttering and distilling, marrying form with function.

Nude transcends the traditional boundaries of glassware treating the whole home as one sensuous and pleasurable space.
