This vase is turned from rowan wood from our parents' garden. The surface is burnt, which gives it a deep black tone and highlights the wood's dense grain. The silhouette moves from a narrow base to a full body and up towards an asymmetrical opening.
The vase is turned from wet wood, where the material's natural movements have created cracks that have been stabilized with stitching in waxed cotton cord. It serves as a visible reminder of both fragility and strength.
The vase stands as an object in itself, but can also hold flowers. A glass insert can be used if you wish to add water. Suitable for both fresh and dried flowers.
