Glass 2 Vase

Drawn to echo blown glassware, this is a vessel whose whole argument is its outline — a body that swells outward and draws back towards a narrow neck, the sort of profile that usually comes off a glassblower's pipe rather than a print bed. It suits a mantelpiece, a windowsill or the middle of a dining table, standing with dried stems, grasses or pampas, or simply standing on its own, which a shape this confident manages without looking unfinished. Being the second in a glass-inspired series, it also groups well beside its siblings if you would rather have three related silhouettes than one statement piece. Scale is where a form like this earns its keep: one file, and the same outline reads happily as a small desk vessel or as something considerably more imposing on the floor.
