New Crystal Glaze Wall painting Orcas

This impressive mural of orcas can enhance both living spaces and office areas in a unique way. Painting on Meissen porcelain requires special techniques, as the colors are applied in multiple layers and then fired at high temperatures. Corrections are not possible during this process, and the firing process also alters the color effect, which demands a high degree of experience and precise knowledge of pigments.

The smooth, non-absorbent surface presents an additional challenge, as both subtle color gradients and detailed motifs can only be rendered with precision using specially developed painting techniques. It is precisely these high standards that give hand-painted murals on Meissen porcelain their distinctive expressiveness and timeless aesthetic appeal.

The art of crystal glazes on porcelain dates back to the 19th century. In the 1920s, it was refined by Emil Paul Börner in the Art Deco style and further adapted into modern design forms by Ludwig Zepner in the 1990s.

With his characteristic crystal glaze and the artisanal perfection of the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory, artist Detlef Ritter creates an impressive example of contemporary porcelain art-a successful fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern artistic expression.
