Skyscraper Vase Specifications

15cm W x 22cm H x 11cm D
In this re-edition of the vase designed by Bodil Kjær in the early 1960s, architecture is the key feature. Its transparency magnifies the complex shape of the object, reminiscent of a skyscraper. Its sculptural shape is achieved through a particularly complex glass process requiring excellent artisan skills. Skyscraper is made of transparent glass mechanically pressed into a cast-iron mold to create the shape of a building and its elegant architectural details, an extremely arduous process, due to the considerable thickness of the glass.
