Back to life of forgotten objects. Enhancement of the historical molds stored in the Royal Crystal Factory of La Granja as generators of history
Main Article Content
Abstract
When “break the mould” means beying unique, one-of-a-kind. Industrially means to take a step back, losing replication and mass production. Humanity has sought the replication of tools, as witnesses of social evolution. Industry it´s a game changer, a new paradigm: to protect what produces protected objects.
A valuable consideration about manufacturing, from the industrial legacy of glass closed factories across Spain. Achieved by the royal glass factory, called Real Fábrica de Cristales de la Granja de San Ildefonso, in a large collection of original glass moulds. Merging design, crafts, industry, and art. Raising mould´s value proposition as industrial heritage and historic heritage producer.
