Zavěšená umělecká váza z tavené skla na dřevě

This art vase is shaped to hang rather than stand, combining hand-blown recycled glass with a natural Gamal wood frame made in Bali. Its larger scale and vertical orientation set it apart from the hanging bowl elsewhere in the range, giving it more presence as a wall feature. The glass was melted directly onto the wood while hot, taking on the exact shape of that particular piece as it cools.

Symbolism

Balinese makers see a wall-mounted piece like this as extending the usual glass-and-wood pairing into a more visible, gallery-like position, rather than a tabletop object among others. Many people choose a hanging art piece specifically to give a natural material a more prominent place in a room. Because the wood frame is unrepeatable, this vase's shape and grain belong only to this piece.

How to use

• Hang using a hook or bracket suited to its weight, clear of foot traffic.
• Use for dried flowers or branches, or leave empty as a sculptural wall piece.
• Wipe the glass with a soft, damp cloth and keep the wood away from prolonged direct heat or damp.
