Coppe Ninfea: Vase Lichene A2

Description

Inspired by the graceful shapes of aquatic blooms, the Coppe Ninfea: Vase Lichene explores themes of balance, motion, and lightness through vases that appear to drift or tilt with ease. This piece captures that feeling, its form defined by gentle curves and a playful sense of movement.

Each piece is handmade from paper clay—a blend of ceramic clay and paper pulp developed by Paola Paronetto—giving it a tactile surface and lightweight feel. The corteccia finish adds fine ridges to the surface, recalling the texture of bark or soft petals, and complements the vase’s organic silhouette.

Finished in Lichene, a soft lichen green, the vase reflects its natural inspiration. Subtle differences in tone, shape, and texture are part of the handmade process, making each piece unique. Rooted in craft and guided by nature, Coppe Ninfea: Vase Lichene brings a quiet, thoughtful presence to any space.

Dimensions: D20 x H40
