A vase is simply a vessel for displaying floral arrangements. It needs only take a basic form, inspiring the imagination of objects like the Vase CoolWater.
Expectedly, the container is deep and narrow enough to clutch a bunch of flower stems but its shape and orientation are remarkably different to what you might usually see. Instead of assuming the type of an unadorned flask or an intricately decorated carafe, Anne Wolf’s item acts as an iconic sculpture all on its own, executed as a realistic representation of a hot water bottle.
Made by Silicium, the Vase CoolWater may not keep your toes toasty beneath the sheets, but it does add warmth and charm to your living space. Modeled from a heavy unpainted porcelain and complete with faux rubber textures, this stemholder surprises its user once more with its horizontal positioning.
