Lot Details

from the 'Unica' Experimental Department of De Porceleyne Fles, Holland where Anneke Borren worked in 1967/68. Provenance: The Anneke Borren collection. 'My time at the 'Unica' department, of the Royal Dutch Delft Blue, 'De Porceleyne Fles', in 1967 was hugely rewarding. Based on the Scandinavian practise of placing ones designers and artists within the factory complex. All clocking in at the same time, and clocking out. Both designing 'Unica' pieces, as well as work for the factory floor. What was made, belonged to the factory, but the wage was good. I also 'threw' for the tourist every weekend in the showroom.'
