The Sacred Bond collection evokes spiritual iconography—flames, eyes, hearts, waves—that echo across centuries and civilizations. These timeless motifs appear not only on glass but also within the very walls of Artisème’s historic home in Malá Strana, nestled beside the centuries-old church. It’s a place where symbols have lingered for generations—etched into stone, whispered through stained glass, and now reborn in crystal. Here, tradition meets emotion. The palace’s quiet grandeur and sacred surroundings inspired a return to the essence: objects with soul—designed to endure, to speak without words, and to be passed on.

“The burning heart, the divine eye, the motion of clouds and waves—these symbols live at the core of my work,”says Kateřina Handlová.

“Leonardo da Vinci’s intricate drawings—his reverence for nature—sparked something deep within me. These vases are my offering: sacred and deeply human.” Each design is a personal meditation, etched into glass to evoke something ancient, intimate, and powerful.
