Dew glass vases Kristine Five Melvær

Norwegian designer Kristine Five Melvær has designed this beautiful series of vases that look like buds about to burst into bloom. The Dew glass vases are mouth blown in thick glass with matte, sandblasted stripes on the outside. This gives texture to the vases and creates life to the colour on the inside.

Dew glass vases are designed by Kristine Five Melvær. The vases are mouth blown by glassblowers who are proud of their work, in sober colours with matte sandblasted stripes. The stripes on the outside of the glass and the colour of the inside create shadows that give a unique depth and texture to the otherwise monochrome volume. Vases are available in four colours. The different heights makes them look beautiful grouped together. Each vase is unique, no two are exactly alike; precisely this is evidence of genuine handicrafts.

The vases are one of three vase series made in collaboration with Magnor Glassverk in the summer of 2013 and now recently launched as part of Magnor Glassverks collection. The three series are all more or less inspired by the Obelix vases, interpreting and playing with the motif in glass.
