Herringbone Vessels
Raw-Edges, 2019
The Herringbone Vessels are created by repeatedly
immersing ceramic bowls and vases in a coloured
glaze. This process yields a pattern with an intrinsic
logic, determined by the dipping angle as well as
the shape and weight of the piece. As the dyeing
process is performed entirely by hand, each bowl
and vase in the Herringbone Collection is a unique
object.
With heights of 24.5 and 31.5 cm, the Herringbone
Collection vases are highly versatile and allow a
great many different kinds of flower arrangements.
#herringbonevessels
Loosely arranged meadow flowers
or a bouquet from the garden.
One flower variety – hanging or standing tall,
depending on the plant.
A bunch comprised of leaves, grasses and twigs
to create a collage of varying shades of green and
different textures.
Tip:
To hold a small number of flowers securely, you can
insert small twigs crosswise in the vase or bend some
thick wire into a loose bunch and place it in the vase.
A further option is to make a grid using transparent
adhesive tape.
Flowers like calla, strelitzia or hydrangeas – as
single flowers or in small groups – have a subtle
and elegant effect.
An autumnal arrangement of seed heads and
grasses for a long-lasting dry flower arrangement.
Form bunches of twigs with contrasting textures in winter and decorate them festively
with Vitra Girard Ornaments.
Simply tell your florist how high the vase is and
let them make a suitable bouquet for you.
