Low Poly Rose Vase

Faceted decor has become a small genre of its own, and this piece takes the rose as its subject: overlapping petal planes wrapped around a rounded body, each one flattened into a crisp triangular face so the shape reads as a bloom from across the room and as pure geometry when you get close to it. It works as an object before it works as a container. Stood on a mantelpiece, a hall table or a bathroom shelf it holds its own empty, and dried stems, seed heads or a few stalks of pampas play nicely against all those hard angles. The rose reference also makes it an easy thing to give — a Valentine's or anniversary piece that does not have to be put away afterwards. Anyone building a set of low-poly decor will find it sits happily alongside faceted animals and geometric planters, and it is an uncomplicated way into the style.
