Grass vase
Claydies
Normann Copenhagen is pleased to introduce the vase that makes you smile. It is designed for ordinary flowers of the type we often overlook in our daily lives Grass brings nature indoors. All the vases are handmade, the variations of each vase emphasises its own unique character.
The striking design of grass brings new life to cut flowers. Grass resembles a roadside tuft of grass. Made of clay, in the hands of designer duo Claydies, a.k.a. Karen Kjældgård-Larsen and Tine Broksø, the material is transformed into a new and sexy product. With the Grass vase, Claydies has taken one of the world's oldest materials and turned it into a product series with a contemporary, humorous expression.
With Grass, Claydies and Normann Copenhagen have cemented the collaboration between craftsmanship and industry. Grass is a reminder of the strong contrasts that exist between the civilised and the uncivilised, as expressed in the contrast between the asphalted road and an untouched roadside. Grass is a new and inspiring design that brings nature indoors.
Karen and Tine explain: "Grass is inspired by the wayside. In our opinion, a wayside with wild flowers is a good depiction of wild Danish nature. Grass has a very naïve ceramic expression that is both uplifting and amusing. If you take Grass and place a simple dandelion, thistle or some other flower from the wayside or field in it, it looks really good."
Normann Copenhagen will have the grass growing in shops worldwide from the end of February 2008.
Material: Stoneware
Available in small (H: 11 cm.), medium (H: 12,5 cm.) and large (H: 15,5 cm.) size.
