About River Vāze
River ir mutes pūšanas tehnikā izgatavota stikla vāze, kas iedvesmota no zilas upes Suonenjoki, Somijā. Trauks ir 22 centimetrus augsts, ar vienkāršu ovālu formu. Katrs eksemplārs ir izgatavots studijā un roku darinā Somijā, tāpēc krāsas plūdums stikla slāņos ir unikāls katrai vāzei. Krāsa pārvietojas pa virsmu kā tekošs ūdens. Nelieli sodas burbulīši pamatnē mijiedarbojas ar gaismu. Katra vāze ir parakstīta ar roku. Dizains apvieno mierīgu skandināvu formu ar somu stikla pūšanas tradīciju, radot mūžīgu un izturīgu ikdienas priekšmetu.

- Research

- Inspiration
- River vase is inspired by a blue river located in Suonenjoki Finland. The collection plays with the elegance of the movement of liquid glass that is frozen into a stasis that is fragile yet forever. The rhythm of the glass making process ensures that every vessel has unique splashes of color that mimic the dance of flowing rivee water. Every vase has their own breath. Its a methaphor for a soul of a piece that makes it more than mere interior object.
- Project Duration
- River vase is designed in 2021 for the city of Suonenjoki
- Operation Flow
- Studio made vessels are expertly handcrafted in Finland. Each mouth blown object has unique watery texture and is signed by hand. There are soda bubbles on the bottom that react with light. The design philosophy behind the series is to create elegant, timeless and durable everyday objects. The vases gain their value from their high quality and design.
