About River Váza
Book Text: Rieka je ručne fúkaná sklenená váza inšpirovaná modrou riekou v obci Suonenjoki vo Fínsku. Nádoba je vysoká 22 centimetrov a má jednoduchý oválny tvar. Každý kus je vyrobený v ateliéri a ručne tvarovaný vo Fínsku, takže priebeh farby v sklenených vrstvách je jedinečný. Farba sa pohybuje po povrchu ako tečúca voda. Malé sódové bublinky pri základni reagujú so svetlom. Každá váza je podpísaná rukou. Dizajn spája pokojný škandinávsky tvar s fínskym sklárskym umením a vytvára tak nadčasový a trvanlivý predmet dennej potreby.

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.
