i just came across this beautiful piece of pottery - the kora vase, designed by studiopepe for spotti edizioni. at first i was drawn to the asymmetrical graphic angles, and then i began finding it more playful as i imagined it to be a funny little lady with her arms on her hips (see it now?). though i love the way all the colors look together, the pink ombre one at the top is definitely my favorite - it would look so gorgeous with a giant summery floral arrangement sprouting out the top! see more from studiopepe here.
how pretty are these puppies? artist pia wustenberg's stacking vessels have not only a very clever design - they are three individual containers that form to make one - but each piece is made of a unique material and is expertly crafted to fit into the other. ceramic for the base, glass in the middle, and wood on top. i'll take one of each, please. see more from pia here.
when you're a clutz like me, you sometimes tend to avoid spending money on nice things that look fragile and have the potential to be knocked over at any moment. not the case with these weight vases by decha archjananun. he takes the basic properties of a vase and deconstructs them into a new, simple form - cast concrete bases held in place by delicate laser-cut steel frames. i love the balance between the two materials, and i know for sure that i can't break it! see more here.
i'm always in need of more vases since i love having flowers around, but i seem to have trouble pulling the trigger on ones that i like. not so with these modular wood and stoneware vases from french company adonde. they can be rearranged to suit your changing needs and have a great pop of color too. parfait!
