Know before you buy
The crackle effect is achieved through an age-old glassmaking technique where the hot, mouth-blown glass is briefly submerged in ice-cold water. This thermal shock creates the intricate, expressive pattern across the surface.
No, this vase is not waterproof. Because of the specialized crackle technique used during production, it is intended to be used as a decorative sculptural piece rather than a vessel for fresh flowers and water.
To preserve the finish, you should hand wash the vase or gently wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth. It is not dishwasher safe, and you should avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers.
This vase was designed by Åsa Jungnelius, a renowned artist known for her sculptural work and feminist-inspired artistic vision. Her designs often challenge traditional aesthetics, blending modern form with deep craftsmanship.
Each piece is handcrafted in Kosta, Sweden. This region is world-renowned for its glassmaking heritage, and every vase is mouth-blown by skilled artisans.
The vase stands 10.6 inches tall and is 8.1 inches wide. It is specifically designed for tabletop placement, offering a substantial and stable presence as a modern statement piece.
