Charles Kraffts’ Porcelain Guns

January 29th, 2008

Initially the below caught my eye because of its uniqueness causing it to stand out from the rest of the images on ffffound.com. However as I dug through the trail of links to find its source I became increasingly interested in Charles Kraffts other works, which can be seen for sale here, most notably the collection of guns and other WWII weaponry he has reproduced in detail to a traditional Victorian painted Porcelain aesthetic.  Unfortunately for anyone wishing to purchase one of his works, especially the weapon related ones will be disappointed to find that they are all but sold out and I presume a unique piece themselves warranting the grand price tag attached. If I had the money I would really have wished to have been able to purchase one of his works pictured below, I can just see it now hung on my wall. Isn’t it odd how something designed to kill and destroy can be made to look so beautiful and attractive?
