• About the artwork
  Touch of Gold
  Pure craftsmanship, true beauty and Dutch historical tradition, harmoniously united into one. Touch of Gold is designer Sabine Struycken’s latest creation as part of the Royal Blue Collection, and was established in coproduction with artist Samuel Dejong. An obvious collaboration: not only do they share a passion for Delft blue patterns, the notions of eternity as well as transience play a crucial role in both their work. The ceramic apple, that Sabine Struycken uses to symbolize infinity, carries a unique Delft blue tulip pattern, hand painted by Royal Delft, de Koninklijke Porceleyne Fles – the last remaining earthenware manufacturer from the 17th century in the Dutch town of Delft. Samuel Dejong decorated the apple with a few of his characteristic golden insect sculptures, that embody both the fragility and the indestructability of our ecosystem.
