History:
This crumpled glass was designed by Makoto Komatsu, whose works have been collected by museums like MoMA and V&;A. Komatsu describes the “Crinkle/Crumple” series as the most important work of his career. The line was inspired by accidental paper imprints he would notice on plaster molds used for mass producing ceramics.
