About River Vas
River adalah vas kaca tiup mulut yang terinspirasi oleh sebuah sungai biru di Suonenjoki, Finlandia. Wadah ini memiliki tinggi 22 sentimeter dengan bentuk oval yang sederhana. Setiap karya dibuat di studio dan dibentuk dengan tangan di Finlandia, sehingga aliran warna di antara lapisan-lapisan kaca menjadi unik. Warnanya bergerak melintasi permukaan bagaikan air yang mengalir. Gelembung-gelembung soda kecil di bagian dasar bereaksi terhadap cahaya. Setiap vas ditandatangani dengan tangan. Rancangan ini memadukan bentuk Skandinavia yang tenang dengan seni tiup kaca Finlandia untuk menciptakan benda sehari-hari yang abadi dan tahan lama.

The collection plays with the elegance of the movement of liquid glass that is frozen into a stasis that is fragile yet forever.

Its a methaphor for a soul of a piece that makes it more than mere interior object.
