The Serax vases in ceramic bring together 44 designs that showcase the Belgian brand's ability to treat clay as a sculptural medium. Each piece balances form, texture and colour with an economy of means typical of contemporary Nordic and European design. Ceramic, a living material by nature, gives these vases a singular character, whether the finish is matt, satin or slightly irregular, the mark of a proudly artisanal expertise. To explore other materials from the same house, the ceramic vases section offers a complementary overview.
Founded in Antwerp, Serax has established itself as a global design house by working with creatives from very different backgrounds, from independent ceramicists to fashion collectives and chefs such as Yotam Ottolenghi. That diversity comes through in the ceramic vase collection, which alternates between organic silhouettes and strict geometries, between intimate tabletop formats and imposing floor-standing pieces. The white Serax vase, available across several ranges, remains an obvious starting point for anyone looking for a chromatic neutrality that suits every interior. Ribbed textures, crackled surfaces and asymmetric curves make each design an object in its own right, far beyond its function. To round off a selection, the Serax glass vases bring lightness and transparency as a counterpoint to ceramic, while the Serax ceramic cups carry the same material language through to the table.
These vases will appeal to design lovers building a carefully considered collection of objects as much as to interior designers looking for pieces that can hold a conversation with all kinds of furniture. In a living room, a large organic vase placed on the floor gives structure to a corner without the need for an extra piece of furniture. On a desk or a console, a smaller format is enough to punctuate the space. For anyone wishing to mix styles while staying within the ceramic register, the Pols Potten ceramic vases make a colourful and complementary alternative.
