Design Glass, Crystal and Porcelain

One of the most famous designers in the Czech Republic is Rony Plesl, who is known mainly for his innovative glass design and his intriguing stone sculptures, and also for his interior design and drawing.

Plesl graduated from the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague where he gained valuable experience in design that would enable him to go further in his career. He has been the head of the Rony Plesl Glass Studio since 2008 although the s.r.o. brand Rony Plesl was founded in 2002, while the Rony Plesl Studio was founded in 2005. His contemporary glassware is unique in the sense as he focused on uranium glass, a production that has been all but halted throughout the continent of Europe. Besides producing uranium glass pieces, Plesl also cooperates with other glass manufacturers including the leading companies Moser, Barovier, Ajeto and Květná, and with Sahm, a German company where Plesl has been the main designer since 2009. As a designer, Plesl cooperates with Denizli by Pasabahce (Turkey) and Preciosa (ČR). Proof of his genius in the field of glass design is the fact that his art is represented in many art collections. His work can be found all over the world and if you wish to see any of his creations you can visit for example Walt Disney World where many glass sculptures are on display, the Prague luxury restaurant Mlýnec, where there is a lovely glass chandelier, and in Hamburg, Germany where there is a glass tower designed by Plesl. The recipient of many design awards, Rony Plesl holds exhibitions in the Czech Republic and abroad. You can purchase Rony Plesl glassware at Kubista, and Qubus by Dox.
