The “ben-ben” hat was created as part of the exhibition series In Circulation, launched by the Contemporary Design Department in 2018. According to the concept, the invited designer will select an object or ensemble of objects from the collection of the Museum of Applied Arts, and will create a new design as inspired by the object(s). The third designer we invited for the series is Valéria Fazekas, milliner living in Budapest. Upon receiving the invitation from the museum, the designer selected an ornamental vessel from the Zsolnay Factory and another from the Drasche Factory.It was primarily the double outline of the Drasche vessel that captivated the designer, as both the outer and inner contours are traced definitively. It inspired the genesis of such “vase within the vase” transparent hat, which can be turned into each other, and due to the transparency of the material, a smaller hat can appear within a larger one.
