We based the design for this black porcelain vase on a grainy black-and-white photo of a 19th-century bronze vase from Japan. Stored in the Metropolitan Museum's archive, the vase is both curvaceous and angular—a difficult form to replicate in cast porcelain. The form inspired both this vase, and our Edo Ceramic Bowl. We use a charcoal non-toxic glaze, making this vase watertight for large flower arrangements.
Each piece in the ARTIFACT collection is inspired by a significant historical object from a museum archive.
