Light gathers in the glass first, then falls into the grain of the Gamal wood beneath it. This molten glass vase is a sculptural vessel for a single stem, a small air plant, stones, or a quiet tabletop arrangement, with pale aqua glass softened over an organic wooden stand.
The look in the room

How to style it

A Balinese meeting of elements
Molten glass on wood pieces come from a Balinese craft tradition that works closely with natural forms rather than forcing them into uniform shapes. Here, the contrast is the point: transparent glass, shaped by heat and breath, resti…
