Vase

Design Sára Kele

Designed to combine aesthetics and functionality, thisvase is composed of two elements: a cut glass bottle, which slides and fades into a block of terrazzo shells with contrasting surfaces.

This object highlights the know-how of the French company Malàkio, which imagines materials made of revalued shells (oysters, mussels, scallops), a mineral binder and plant-based pigments.

The low-tech manufacturing process does not require energy consumption and gives a unique quality to the material.
