Thomas Fuchs Creative brings craftsmanship by skilled artisans to market previously only available to the trade. Traditional techniques such as hand carving, lost wax casting and glass blowing are accessible at a price point without compromising the design aesthetic.
Launching into the retail market with a line of Bar ware gives an entree to a genre that the female customer relate to and the male customer appreciate. TFC brings a twist to the common perspective with the collections such as "Remains" using the skull as a tool for inspiration; "Botanicals" of killer plants and inlaid unassuming "Bubbles". This precisely timed launch justifies retail purchasing by offering the consumer to build a timeless collection of daily objects that evoke emotion while being functional.
