The Vladimir Collection is a fine porcelain design and production studio that has carried on and perfected the tradition of the 18th century European trompe l'oeil, meaning 'nature in artifice' pioneered by Meissen, Chelsea, Bow, Longton Hall and other pre-eminent European factories. This playful and lively tradition was much favored in the wealthy society of 18th century Europe and equally treasured today by porcelain collectors and home decorators. Each piece in our collection is made from raw materials in our New York studio in very small editions. Every piece is individually signed by Vladimir Kanevsky, an artist and designer who has been refining the traditional art of porcelain for almost two decades.
