Vortex and Dove vases

The artefact

Skilfully lathe-shaped in essential lines, these vases are enriched and have an original touch thanks to the plastic addition of vortex-shaped elements combined with small birds. The refined terracotta surfaces can be glimpsed through the black enamel decorations. They are part of the matte enamel line, consisting of numerous home décor items made entirely by hand using a lathe.
