Amber and black glass vase 40cm - Serax

The Wind & Fire series comprises, on the one hand, glass transpositions of the organic Earth vases in papier-mâché, but entirely new shapes have also been added to the collection: pieces reminiscent of old-fashioned apothecary jars, not to mention the flasks once used to store the essences destined for perfume-making.

The organic versions in brown, green and dark blue, for the fuller proposals; and the narrower ones in sky blue and cognac, all display captivating variations. "The transition between these two palettes evokes the exchange between the sea and the beach," explains Marie, who also reminds us how tufts of natural-coloured twigs emerge from the sand at the water's edge; and how a few polished shards of glass join the pebbles…

A collection full of gradients, subtle or bold, saluting all those little echoes from one environment and one material to the next, the secret of powerful and generous Mother Nature. Here, a muted vase in the spirit of still-damp sand, encircled by deep waters. An amber body and a black neck, which a delicate arrangement of foliage or short-stemmed flowers will enhance beautifully.
