Description
Trevor Foster (b. 1990)
with Charles Krafft (1951–2024)
Edition 1 of 1
This porcelain Luger was the final work fired in Charles Krafft’s kiln during his lifetime.
We developed the piece together, and I completed it after his passing. I apprenticed under Charles Krafft for eight years, and this work continues that mentorship.
Based on a Kreighoff Luger pistol, the sculpture is rendered entirely in porcelain. The surface combines hand-painted detailing and applied decals, referencing European ceramic traditions historically used to ornament objects of ceremony and power.
Steel yields to time.
Porcelain yields to touch.

ABOUT ME (TREVOR FOSTER)
I'm Trevor Foster
I'm a sculptor and craftsman who's been working with ceramics for over a decade. My journey with clay started in Seattle, where I studied ceramics, but my connection to Thailand began much earlier as the child of antique dealers. After graduation, I returned to Thailand to establish my studio in the jungle, where every piece is still crafted today.
My Approach To Craftsmanship
I believe in making well-crafted pieces that people can actually connect with, not just art that sits on a white wall gathering dust. Behind every object tells a story since everything I do starts with a philosophical inquiry that I turn into an idea before it becomes an object that you can hold.
