WATERFORD ARTISAN TOUR 2015

Waterford City, Ireland is home to the House of Waterford Crystal, where skilled Waterford Crystal artisans carry on longstanding traditions of mouth blowing, hand finishing, sculpting and engraving. The rich Waterford heritage spans centuries, with origins that date to 18th century Ireland. Through the years, our reputation for design and innovation has elevated the Waterford brand to a position of status as the world s finest crystal. The House of Waterford Collection pays tribute to the skilful hands of Waterford Crystal s most masterful craftsmen. These crystal pieces are created to satisfy the imagination, pursue an inspiration or simply master the silvery sparkling medium that has challenged artists for centuries.

FRED CURTIS WATERFORD ARTISAN TOUR 2015 Our guest Artisan in 2015 is Fred Curtis. What started out as a summer job for 15-year-old Fred Curtis turned into a vocation, leading him to his current position as Master Sculptor and Designer at the House of Waterford Crystal and worldwide ambassador for the world s most beloved crystal. In 1971, Fred Curtis applied for a summer job at Waterford, and subsequently enrolled in a five year apprenticeship as a glass cutter. He qualified with distinction and achieved the status of Master Cutter in ten years. His early experiments with sculpting little gifts for family and friends from solid pieces of discarded crystal did not go unnoticed and in 1986 he was asked to establish a new sculpting department at Waterford Crystal. Over the years Fred designed and sculpted some of Waterford s most beautiful trophies and presentation pieces for some of world s most famous people, including Mother Theresa of Calcutta, US Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, golfing legend Greg Norman and actor Clint Eastwood to name just a few. Fred continues to design and sculpt crystal pieces of extraordinary beauty. He enjoys the freedom of expression at Waterford that allows him to create individual works of art in crystal that further enhance his expertise as a true Master. During the 2015 tour events Fred will demonstrate his outstanding crystal cutting skills.

FOUR SEASONS COLLECTION The House of Waterford Crystal pays homage to the Four Seasons by celebrating the four key seasonal moments of the year: the Summer and Winter Solstices and the Autumnal and Vernal (Spring) Equinoxes. Four new and unique Waterford wedge cutting patterns poetically represent the passing of seasons in a series of cut crystal bowls and vases, as well as one grand vase featuring all four patterns. Each season is represented by a unique cutting pattern evocative of the spirit of the season.

PEACOCK COLLECTION With their iridescent feathers and decadent beauty inspiring decorative imitations both abstract and literal, Peacocks have been a favourite ornamental motif for millennia. A flying bird of the pheasant variety, the name peacock refers to the male of the species, known for his extravagant spotted tail feathers. Peacocks have long been a symbol of wealth, beauty and rebirth since ancient times and they remain a popular motif today, perhaps because they can be beautiful as both a graphic image and as a representation of nature. Designer John Connolly was inspired by the graphic pattern of the proud peacock s feathers to create a new deep cutting pattern that is realised in a new collection at The House of Waterford Crystal in Ireland. Oversized shapes are lavishly adorned with signature wedge cuts, deep thumb-print cuts, and ring cuts, to create a sparkling treasure that is as beautiful as its namesake.

WINDOWS COLLECTION The Georgian Era of British history is the period in history spanning the reigns of the first four Hanoverian kings who were all named George, covering the period 1714 to 1830. The term Georgian is typically used in context of social history, architecture and décor. This was the golden age of the first Waterford Crystal factory, providing superb crystal to royalty and nobility alike. It is this period that is the inspiration for many of the patterns that are still popular today. Designer John Connolly was motivated by the shapes and the many cut patterns that were used at that time when he developed the Georgian Windows collection. Featuring flat cuts, wedge cuts and ring cuts, these classic pieces carefully tell the story of that era. The House of Waterford Crystal, located nearly in the same spot as the original factory, keeps this historic tradition alive for today.

ARTISAN PIECE Each year a House of Waterford Crystal designer is selected to create a unique Artisan piece available exclusively at Waterford Crystal Artisan Events around the globe. Fred Curtis was inspired by the numerous ancient stone circles found about the lush green landscape of Ireland. Cut deep into the crystal are a series of swerve cuts filled with traditional Waterford diamond cuts representing the massive stones that make up the circle. Rosette cuts at the top and bottom represent the sunlight from the Summer and Winter Solstices, events that held special significance for prehistoric people. The largest of these is Grange Stone Circle in County Limerick, which was built around 2100 BC. You walk into the circle through the pillar stones and are transported to a timeless and beautiful place, one that lends itself to a mystical experience. Legend has it that it was created by Aine, the Sun Goddess and Fairy Queen. It contains a cave that is said to be the secret entrance to Tir Na Nog, land of eternal youth, where you never grow old, leaves never fall from trees and flowers bloom all year long.
