On a light wooden console, next to a soft linen curtain through which daylight filters in, this compact vase stands still and confident. Not loud, not intrusive — but present in a way that brings peace to the space.
This handmade vintage vase features a deep, almost inky black glaze that subtly plays with the light. Its soft sheen reveals new nuances with every movement, while the delicate drips bring the surface to life. As if the maker wanted to capture the moment of flow — a small, tangible piece of time. The three subtle, horizontally parallel lines give the whole an extra rhythm, a detail you only truly notice when you slow down.
The shape is elegant and balanced: a full, teardrop-shaped belly that transitions into a refined narrow neck. This creates a natural harmony that complements both minimalist and more expressive interiors.
For those who love softness and serenity, this piece brings a quiet balance. For those who like to add character, there is just enough individuality in the glaze and lines to make it exciting. And for those seeking certainty: the clear signature on the bottom confirms the craftsmanship and authenticity of this object.
As we at De Tuin Der Kunsten believe: art can be different, a little whimsical, but above all affordable and with a soul. This vase is a beautiful example of that — a unique piece that effortlessly adds warmth and refinement to your interior.
Thanks to its compact size, it is ideal for subtle styling: on a bedside table, in an open cabinet, or as a quiet accent on a desk. Alone or with a single branch — it needs nothing more.
Curious how this vase fits into your space? Using the button “Visualize this object in your interior”, you can easily project it into your own setting, both in 2D and 3D. This way, you can immediately see how it relates to your colors, light, and furniture.
As an interior composer, I am also happy to help you find the right artwork for the right place. This vase can also be viewed in the art room of De Tuin Der Kunsten — you are most welcome to experience it in person.
